Pharoah Magic should lead but there are a few other speedy types who can keep him honest. PHAROAH MAGIC (2) was back to his best when leading all the way to score by over 4 lengths here last week, and he should have no trouble with this next level, especially with 3kg less to carry this time. If this race has not come too soon for him, then he can repeat the dose. HELLO WORLD (3) showed promise earlier in his career in South Australia and made a winning local debut here 3 weeks ago. Flashing home late to score by a nose. He drops 2.5kg and can have the last say again. FIELD OF FLUTES (1) has been very disappointing in his first 2 starts back from a spell. He might have swallowed some dirt here 10 days ago and can be forgiven for that effort. He has trialled since then and can bounce back into form here. DEVILS DELIGHT (4) bounced back from a poor effort in his penultimate start with an impressive all-the-way win here 10 days ago from a wide gate. He has a better draw here and with 4.5kg less to carry, he will be hard to hold out. VINNIE'S SPIRIT (5) has each-way claims. SUGGESTED PLAY: Pharoah Magic is the one to beat, but there are many chances in this contest.
