The pace looks strong from the outset. SCISSOR ME TIMBERS (1) fought on well to finish second last start over 1100m at this track, beaten one length when fresh from a spell as favourite. That was first run for the new yard and can go one better. REAL DIVINE (4) got well back over 1600m at this track last time and never threatened, eventually finishing 5 lengths away in fourth. Has a good record at this course and distance, with three wins and seven placings from 11 tries. Likely improver with strong prospects. THE BIG FREEZE (2) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1200m at this track, beaten 4 lengths. Rates highly and should improve sharply. DELUSIONALDICTATOR (3) hasn't made an impression since resuming despite market confidence. Last start could only manage seventh over 1200m at this track. Expecting improvement. SUGGESTED PLAY: Stick with Scissor Me Timbers.
