A solid tempo anticipated with The Flying Lanzini and Dynamic Theory ahead of Mlinzi and My Reward.
DYNAMIC THEORY (5) is heading the right way with his form since making the move from Victoria and was runner-up as favourite here 4 weeks ago. He is nicely poised to go one better this time. THANK GOD I GOTHIM (3) is a Victorian visitor who hails from the travelling Andrew Perdon stable, who has a great record when he treks to this part of Australia. This gelding was runner-up at his track debut here 2 weeks ago, and should clear maidens at short notice. NO BRAKES (1) was very disappointing last time out and has yet to show much since making the move from Queensland. His trainer, Gary Clarke, is one of the best in the business, and will have him sorted out third up. Jarrod Todd sticks with him, and so do we. PREDICTING (6) was around the mark when racing in Sydney and should have no trouble picking up a win in this area at short notice. Use the market as your guide. NUNNIONG (2) did not fire here 3 weeks ago and drops in trip with the blinkers on for the first time here. Each way. SUGGESTED PLAY: Dynamic Theory to win.
