Solid tempo with Fellini to lead but under plenty of pressure in a keen early contest. FAMILY TIES (4) is a multiple class dropper here. Course winner already. Big chance here for all of your combinations. FELLINI (1) is a course winner too. Multiple class dropper here. After a 4kg claim is right in this so include him everywhere. JAFFA (13) is a multiple class dropper in this line up. Course winner as well. Not out of this at all to pay a dividend or be first four. ROYAL VALOUR (11) he is course proven too. Chance to be in all of your multiples. Include here on dry or wet ground. MOUSSAIEFF (3) is a triple track winner. He has won on dry and wet footing so the weather is irrelevant. Impossible to omit as racing so well this time in. SUGGESTED PLAY: Family Ties is a win wager.
