Expecting Brightburn to find the lead but there will be plenty of pressure over the sharp trip.
ATTRACTIVENESS (4) was handy in the run then battled on fairly but just missed a placing on debut over this distance at Canterbury last start. Will find this a far easier proposition so despite a sticky gate she is clearly the testing material. ESCARGOES (2) went close first-up at Gundagai then was too bad to be true last time out at Gosford. Brad Widdup tries a couple of gear changes today which might spark a return to form. BRIGHTBURN (5) looked the winner when she found the lead in the lane on debut recently but was bloused late over 1150m at the Beaumont track. Started twos-on on that occasion so there are wraps on her. Worth following. ALL STAR (1) returns from a 220-day break and has transferred from Waller to Fabio Martino. Won a recent Hawkesbury trial. Betting holds the key. HARD JAKKA (3) showed ability in the maiden prep and is a market watch first-up from a brief spell. SUGGESTED PLAY: Keen on Attractiveness.
