A distinct absence of early speed so don't expect any records to be broken. ZOULAR (4) sat handier and spiked his figures, narrowly beaten at the Gold Coast. Keeps the handy 2kg claim and presenting at peak, he can go one better. WINDOW TAPPER (14) led at Doomben and was beaten a nose and hefty odds. There was no fluke about that, and she has the early speed to clear the awkward barrier. A winning chance holding the form. DEEP DAWN (10) also hits the race in peak condition, and she was better again beaten 1L here last time. Jumps from an inside barrier and can stalk the speed. BEST COFFEE (9) is ahed fit and racing honestly. In the mix. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Zoular.
