Expecting a strong tempo with First Feeling, Lai Flipper and The Streaker going forward ahead of Darlinc and Neverends. THE STREAKER (2) lines up fresh and profield well to be hard to beat. He's drawn well, has tactical speed and, if he handles the dirt, he will take some catching, especially with the 3kg claim. He's shown enough ability to think this is within his grasp. PETRA'S GIRL (7) has had plenty of attempts at breaking her maiden. She is a chance all the same here along with IT'SABOUTTIME (5) who did enough fresh and is open to improvement second-up. They look the primary resistance to the good favourite. LAI FLIPPER (6) hasn't done much in three runs on the dirt so it's hard to get too excited about her chances on the surface but she's big odds as a result and might have more to offer. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing The Streaker to win a thin race.
