Cracking tempo with Dalt Jaz and Oscar Booie leading the way.
Former Victorian BREECHES (4) has been thereabouts in both runs since joining the new stable and strikes a very winnable contest here. Has hit the top-four at her past five starts and looks to be on the doorstep of a maiden victory. Rates the testing material against this line-up. DALT JAZ (6) has hit the frame in all three runs this campaign and gets the services of Cormack in the irons. Looms as the main danger. NATIONAL GOAL (1) strips fitter third-up from the spell and maps ideally from gate two. In the mix. ARIK LAD (10) was too bad to be true last time out but go on the close-up second over this track and trip two back. Worth another chance. OSCAR BOOIE (2) rounds out the selections. SUGGESTED PLAY: Breeches to shed the maiden tag.
