---|---|---|---|---|
Fast tempo assured with Thankyou Henry and Surreal Ascot going at each other early in the piece. Looks a wide-open affair to close out the card. BOSSED UP (1) is building up an impressive record with three wins and three placings from just eight outings and has won when second-up before. Has a handy association with rider Orman and should be right there when the judge calls a halt. THANKYOU HENRY (8) is one from one over this track and trip and looks to have plenty of upside. Top-three credentials. QUADE (6) has only missed the top five once in 13 starts and should be hitting the line strongly. THE FIXER (4) is a last-start winner and must be respected from the Bruce barn. SUGGESTED PLAY: Boxed Trifecta 1,8,6,4.
