Genuine tempo anticipated with good speed engaged. HALLE BEE (8) well found at start twenty when a commanding 4 len winner over 1400m at Tamworth. Returned good figures at latest and this is no tougher with the drop in weight. Goes close. MAD HARRY (5) finally got off the mark at start twenty-seven when powering late for a gritty victory over 1280m at Muswellbrook. Extra distance suits with the solid tempo anticipated. Look for him late. DOWN THE KOOKA (3) bumped into a couple of classy types when a fading tenth to Cluedo over 1400m at Taree. Gets a better set-up today and expected to take a hand in the finish. MONTGOLFIER (4) taken straight to the front when up in distance for a slick 3 len win over 1250m at Taree. Can keep the winning momentum going. SUGGESTED PLAY: Halle Bee in a solid contest.
