Solid tempo anticipated with Dixie Princess and Vermillion Gem pressing forward with Summer Mood not far away. GLOBAL TRIP (2) never really got into the race first-up at Bunbury when beaten 5.4L, but this will be a much easier race for him. ZJP jumps from a better draw this time and the form out of his last start has stacked up well. Can improve on the fresh run and land the knockout blow. SUMMER MOOD (5) disappointed when back in trip last start, jumping favourite but finishing 3.3L off the winner. Out to 1200m is a big tick today and the wide draw doesn't hurt. Should be flying late and can get the job done. DIXIE PRINCESS (4) has had a few goes now but she appears to be knocking on the door. She just missed last start when 0.4L off the winner after sitting on the pace throughout. Needs some luck from out wide, but can be in the finish if things go her way. VERMILLION GEM (8) was fair here on debut and can improve out in distance. CINNAMON TWIST (7) resumes after a long layoff but did trial well coming in. Can feature from a nice gate. SUGGESTED PLAY: Global Trip gets the nod in the opener.
