Despite the small field Agressive Bee, Alpha Flight and Bleak Mid Winter can set a strong tempo. ALPHA FLIGHT (1) was electric here last start, jumping straight to the front and clearing out to win comfortably. Hard fit, full of confidence, and looks primed to go back-to-back. BLEAK MID WINTER (3) didn’t fire last start in tougher company at Morphettville but was a dominant first-up at Clare when leading pillar-to-post. Finds a more forgiving race here. Great chance to bounce back into the winner's circle. DYLAN'S LAD (2) continues to race well, adding another nice win to the tally last start over this course and distance. Clearly a threat again. AGRESSIVE BEE (4) failed to make an impact fresh but is capable of much better. Has speed to burn and may prove harder to catch with that run under the belt. Respect. SUGGESTED PLAY: Alpha Flight to win.
