Pace looks sure to be genuine with Prophet Of Destiny and Savasteel matching motors, closely followed by Dust Cloud. The well-related EDGE OF INFINITY (8) (half to G2 winner and 2xG1 placed Osipenko) is unlucky to still be a maiden hitting the top-four in her past four outings and strikes a very winnable contest here. Ready to peak now third run back from the spell and gets a jockey upgrade in the form of Maloney in the irons. Rates the testing material against this line-up. ASSUMED (9) brings NSW formlines to the table and should find this a touch easier. Looms as the main danger. DUST CLOUD (4) just ran into one better at Doomben last time out in a career-best performance. May have turned the corner now. CANYA BERICH (5) was well in the betting when resuming but was a bit plain on that occasion. Better for that hit-out and where there's smoke there's fire. Watch for sharp improvement. LOVE REBEL (7) next in line from the low draw. SUGGESTED PLAY: Edge Of Infinity to shed the maiden tag.
