Without an obvious leader, it may be left to Stromboli Delight, Khamis and Kobability to control the tempo. The well-related EXPLOSIVE POWER (1) (half to 3xG1 winner Explosive Jack) got the job done over this track and trip at the latest outing and looks to have plenty of upside. Rates the hardest to toss. MISTING (4) is one from one over this mile journey and will strip fitter second-up from the spell. Top-three commodity. LA COMETA (3) returned in good order with a close-up second at the Sunny Coast and can play a major role in the outcome on that effort. KOBABILITY (9) next in line in a race with only a handful of chances. SUGGESTED PLAY: Explosive Power to win.
