Strong tempo assured with Proudly Spoken, Bird On A Wing and Rikkitikkitavi rolling to the front. CLAIR DE LUNE (7) is yet to break through in four runs but has been thereabouts. Placed two back then was 2.5 lengths away in fifth over 1200m at this track last time. Best form stacks up nicely and deserves another chance. RIKKITIKKITAVI (5) has not raced since her debut on January 18 over 1200m at this track when she finished fourth, beaten 1.75 lengths. Much better for that run and can get off the mark this time. HAZEL GREEN (8) is facing the starter for the first time. By Gimmethegreenlight and is out of the Justin Snaith stable. Watch for a betting push. HERITAGE RIDGE (2) battled away fairly last time when third over 1000m at this track. Extra journey a plus now and can run a cheeky race at odds.
