Media Club and Pony Up have the pace to take up the running at a solid tempo. KING OF LIGHT (1) set tongues wagging with an impressive victory on debut, clocking strong splits and a good raring at Pinjarra. He looks destined for stronger races through The Pinnacles and lines up in this 2YO Open that looks to have a long tail. Clearly the one to beat, especially with improvement expected. MEDIA CLUB (10) wasn't far away on debut 17 days ago at Pinjarra when sticking on strongly over 1200m. The blinkers go on for the first time today and she drops in weight despite the strong fresh effort. Can be in the finish again. BINKY'S WAR (11) wasn't far behind Media Club on debut when showing her inexperience early in the race. She'll need some luck from the barrier, but her form ties in nicely and she won't be far away. PONY UP (9) finished behind King Of Light last start and should be prominent in the run. Worth including. RADIANT LIGHT (4) can put his best foot forward after a solid debut. SUGGESTED PLAY: King Of Light can go back-to-back.
