Genuine tempo from Kamariya leading Besiege. KAMARIYA (7) was outgraded at Doomben before delivering a 68 against her own sex at the Sunshine Coast. Keeps the handy 2kg claim and may be the one to control the race from the paint. She can go on with the job. DOWNEY (3) resumed in a touch stronger at Dalby and found one 2L too good. Started at a short quote and has more up his sleeve. Maps well and the 3kg claim brings him right into it. TAKE A PICTURE (4) brought decent form to resumption and disappointed well supported. He's proven second up and flies this course/distance. Has the 2kg claim and his best is good enough. CHINCHILLA AHEAD (5) led beaten 1L as favourite here in a CL2 and will give a sight again. GREY NORTHERN (12) resumes and has switched from a Victorian yard. She has the ability but may need longer. SUGGESTED PLAY: Leaning to Kamariya.
