Tricky one to map with a number of first starters but over this trip there is good speed anticipated. DUST ASIDE (2) bumped into a good one on debut at Pinjarra down the straight course when not running up to his trial efforts. He's again trialled sharply this time in work and the inside draw should see him get very chance. Can land the knockout blow on resumption. GRACEFUL LASS (9) hit the line nicely in her only trial this time in work but had shown good ability through the winter months in a couple of public outings. Chris Parnham sticks after partnering her in her last two trials and she looks right up to this on debut. DARK OPAL (5) was very impressive at the trials recently in readiness for this, winning her only heat by 3.1L. Fiore remains in the saddle from the trial and she should be able to sit handy from the draw. Can make her presence felt. THE NUN (10) is another who has trialled well coming into this, hitting the line impressively at her latest heat. Worth keeping safe. BUBBLES IN RIO (4) is better than he showed last time out and can bounce back. SUGGESTED PLAY: Dust Aside looks the one to beat in the opener.
