Good early pressure anticipated with a large contingent of unraced runners. COMONGIN (1) chased gamely into the frame on debut but just lacked a fitness edge late. Is sure to have come on with that run under his belt and should be right there at the business end. SOCIAL CIRCLE (7) is a Maurice filly out of Networking on debut for the powerful partnership of Messara & Gavranich. Is a full sister to G2-placed Invisible Tears and looks set to make a bright start after a pair of handy Scone trial placings. BURNING AMBITION (4) was no match for a strong field on debut at Randwick when thrown in the deep end. Showed improvement at Scone without threatening and is expected to come along further third-up. Debutant FROSTY'S GOTCHA (2) next best. SUGGESTED PLAY: Going with Comongin to win.
