---|---|---|---|---|
A solid tempo anticipated with Divine Thoughts and Very Sewreel ahead of Suances and Matawai. MATAWAI (2) just on top. She's come back well, winning fresh and placing in two runs since. She tried hard behind the talented and unbeaten Proved at Sandown Hillside last time out when just edged out and that form should hold up nicely here. FEARLESS WRITER (3) is racing quite well without winning, not far away at Caulfield last time out when back to this trip. The time was strong there and should give her a good grounding for this. SIRIUS STATEMENT (4) is in good form, winning two of her past three, far too good for BM64 company last start at Pakenham. Can measure up. DIVINE THOUGHTS (6) has been solid in two runs back and should be ready to peak now. OUTCASTER (7) next best. SUGGESTED PLAY: Matawai to win.
