---|---|---|---|---|
Genuine pace headed by Merchant Miss from her wide draw. LONGWARRY (6) has changed stables after a couple of mediocre efforts in Victoria earlier in the season. He looked forward at a recent trial and with the benefit of pole position, he can make his presence felt. A market watch is advised. ELLIOTTO (1) fought on resolutely to hold onto fourth place here nearly 5 weeks ago when making his debut. The experience will improve him and he is capable of picking up a win at short notice. FAIR LEGACY (14) has also changed stables this season and is having her first run after a decent spell. She was close up in a recent trial and will be ready to rumble fresh up. Watch the markets closely. TAURI (10) is on debut and has the right profile to figure in the finish. SUGGESTED PLAY: Longwarry on top.
