Although on a small field the presence of some first starters should ensure a solid clip. KIKOIRA (4) has not raced since making his debut with a plodding sixth over 1200m at Canterbury on August 7. Has also been gelded over the break and has the two trials under his belt. Improver. SHE REX (8) returned with an encouraging third over 1300m at Warwick Farm in the soft (7) going. Maps well again and looks well graded here. IVY LEGEND (7) expected to improve in this small field after running sixth over 1500m at Newcastle in a Super Mdn. Winkers come off and assess on earlier efforts. UNBRIDLED STORM (6) Puissance De Lune gelding on debut for the Waller yard. Had two soft trials leading into this and look for him doing his best work late. SUGGESTED PLAY: Kikoira to win.
