Cracking tempo with Hooks and Streak Of Winning leading the way. Cracking contest to close out the card. STREAK OF WINNING (6) resumes but the form he displayed in his first preparation was very hard to fault. Looks to have plenty of upside and shapes as the hardest to beat following a few key scratching. BODY OF VENUS (16) is a last-start winner who shouldn't be slept on. Closed off well to win at Port Macquarie last start and shapes as one of the main dangers. ESTRONDO (7) was good fresh before never in the race last start. Much easier here and has to be included. FIGHTING IDOL (1) closed off well late at Toowoomba last start and appears the best of the rest. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Streak Of Winning in his return.
