Super Sharp and Kickatorp to take it up. Kicking off with a bang in Alice. It looks a race in two between KICKATORP (2) and FLYING YISHU (1). Leaning towards KICKATORP (2), who boasts a spectacular record at this track. Fresh-up off 107 days and has only missed the top three once in seven resuming efforts. Keen. FLYING YISHI (1) is the one he'll need to beat - he's won two of three this time in and is absolutely flying. Boasts his own enviable record at this circuit and will take a stack of beating. BEAU FACTOR (3) clear third pick after back-to-back second placings. BOLD TROPIC (4) and SUPER SHARP (5) round out the small field, but it's hard to make a strong case for either. SUGGESTED PLAY: Keen to have a go at KICKATORP resuming, with his best above what FLYING YISHU has produced this time in.
