---|---|---|---|---|
Genuine tempo from Bella Russian leading Wheat King. Lindsay Park looks to have a highly-suitable race for GLAMOUR ANA (10) to break through. Was placed in three of four in the debut campaign and then third again first-up in a tougher race than this. With the benefit from that run, and from a gun draw, she's clearly the one to beat. LIKE A DIAMOND (11) has performed consistently across the border and should be nearing peak fitness after two runs back. TWO CUBED (13) was well-held first-up but improved into the prep last campaign so a better showing would not surprise. DARATING (3) was terrible on debut but it was interesting to note good market support that day - $6.50 to $3.90 - so probably needs to be given another chance from the good draw. STJERNE (2) is also drawn well and is in good hands so might be one for the exotics. SUGGESTED PLAY: Glamour Ana to win.
