August Joe will stride forward but there are few debutants who can keep him busy. TURBO TORQUE (3) resumes here but the form he showed when last in work was good enough to be competitive in a race of this nature. Gets 2kg off with the claim and a strong showing while fresh would not surprise. WAYNO (4) is on debut here but won a recent trial in dominant fashion and rider Butler stays on top for race day. Looks all set for a bright start. AUGUST JOE (1) has been thereabouts in both starts to date over this track and trip and has race experience over a few of these. Top-three aspirations. LADY WILLPOWER (8) gets Wiggins on board and can run a race while fresh. INNOVADER (7) next in line from the inside alley. SUGGESTED PLAY: Turbo Torque to shed the maiden tag.
