Anticipating Flash Dancer to be prominent but one or more of the unraced runners should add to the early pressure. IN CONFIDENCE (6) trialled well at Belmont before her narrow defeat at Pinjarra on debut. She improved again following, beaten 1L on the Scarpside, and will strip fitter. She will use an inside barrier, and the in-form Fiore remains aboard. She should be taking the next step. BUCKLED (1) is third-up and Pike rides for the first time. He found a place (heavily bet) at Belmont at the back of his initial campaign, and he gives himself every chance. FLASH DANCER (2) found one much too good at Northam on debut, but covered the others and will be better for it. He'd looked good at the trials, and Chris Parnham rides today. Has the outside barrier but has claims. SOLIDIFIED (5) debuts and he was beaten 1.8L in a recent Belmont trial over 1000m. He may be the best of the debutants. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing In Confidence to win.
