Teelg to go to the lead at a genuine tempo. TEELG (1) is unlucky to still be a maiden finishing runner-up in both starts to date and strikes a very winnable contest here. Looms as the main danger. OLD FAITHFUL (4) is a five-start maiden who resumed from a spell last start and was beaten 7 lengths when tenth over 1200m at this track. Can come on from that run and looks a serious top-three contender. SAVASTEEL (2) improved last start when he made late ground to finish third over 1000m at this circuit. Finds a suitable race and may trouble the judge again. STARWARD (8) is resuming. Last appeared 11 weeks ago when he finished 4.5 lengths from the winner in sixth over 1208m at Port Macquarie. Solid claims fresh. SUGGESTED PLAY: Teelg to break through.
