|---|---|---|---|---|

Plenty of pace established by Our Beau, Powerofpersuasion and Kaiseda, with Gold Card close at hand. ORTEGA (4) was returning from a break last time out and proved too classy, scoring by a neck over 1200m at Matamata. Has won second up before. Best on wet ground. Can win again in this. RIBKRAKA (3) was an encouraging effort last start. Well drawn again. A placing or the first four is very possible in this. LISTENING (8) was an easy winner fresh up. Has more success to come for certain. This filly has upside galore. Major threat in this for sure. POWEROFPERSUASION (9) has drawn well. Harder here but this filly has some scope. Her starting price will be very intriguing. GOLD CARD (2) was a decent effort fresh up. Has been placed before when second up. Drawn out. SUGGESTED PLAY: Ortega and Listening are win wagers.
