Millionaire Lover and Bon's A Lad will press forward in a keen battle for the lead. Good race. Trainer Kerry Petrick has a very strong hand in this but it could be the new stable runner who claims the prize. MILLIONAIRE LOVER (9) is a former Victorian and a three start maiden who has placed his last two. The figures stack for this level and looks ideally placed with the claim to make an immediate impact. BON'S A LAD (3) is another having first run for a new barn. No stranger to Alice though and does go well fresh. Has placed 4/6 course and distance and aided by the claim. Should run well fresh. STARTON (2) is a seasoned galloper resuming and has won twice here fresh - both at this trip. Rates a leading chance. Stablemate HELLIVIT (1) also resumes. Top record this course and distance but poor record fresh. Worth following up whatever he does in this. BODMIN BOY (4) goes very well course and distance and expect a forward showing. SUGGESTED PLAY: Keen on Millionaire Lover.
