Good early pressure anticipated with a large number of unraced runners. TOO DARN COLD (3) in the first run for the new stable he closed off strongly with the 59kg when a tenacious third over 900m at Albury. Fitter now and only has to get through the going to take this out. PERFORMING DIVA (7) resumes from a lengthy spell. Tipped out after improving sharply at her second race start with a narrow second over 1000m at Goulburn. Back without a trial and should have developed further over the break. Maps well and is expected to take a hand in the finish. ORIENTAL DANE (6) former SA-trained filly now in the Kerry Weir yard. Comes here after going back from the awkward draw when a poor twelfth over 1400m at Balaklava. Well drawn for this and not to be underestimated. SPICE OF DUBAI (8) caught the eye on debut when a sound fifth over this trip at Narrandera. Finds an easier contest from the good gate. SUGGESTED PLAY: Box Quinella 3,7,6,8.
