Plenty of first starters engaged which makes it tricky to map, but we can assume a genuine tempo. MISS FREELOVE (8) finished just behind the top pick in the same race when making her debut, and she will be a lot better with that run under her belt. Kerrin McEvoy sticks with her, and so do we. BRYANT (6) was put aside to mature after failing to fire on debut in a tougher field at Randwick in the spring. He is having his first start as a gelding and looked sharp when winning a recent trial. Each-way. BEECHWORTH (7) had no luck on debut and from a handy draw, he can show his true worth. Stick with him. CHATTERLEY (11) is on debut with the advantage of the pole position. Watch the markets closely. SUGGESTED PLAY: Miss Freelove each-way.
