Sun Beauty, Coastal Groove and Bluebird Bay can set up a solid gallop. HAMPDEN (6) found one marginally better last start over 1890m at this track after being prominent throughout. Nicely placed to give this a mighty shake. BLUEBIRD BAY (3) ran a better race last start to finish a close third over 1850m at this track. Will strip fitter and can play a pivotal role. THAT'S OUTSTANDING (10) was below his best last time when eighth over 1800m at Hawkesbury. Out in trip and can improve into a placing here. ALWAYS RIGHT (4) registered her first win last start over 1890m at this track, getting home by a nose. Tougher task this time but expected to be competitive again. SUGGESTED PLAY: Hampden win.
