Kamala is expected to lead at a strong tempo. SCIALLA (10) is facing the starter for the first time but has shown a stack of ability at the trials and won't need to be a superstar to be competitive against this lot. Gets in well at the weights with the claim and can run a big race on debut. AUTUMN GALE (3) was well in the betting first time at the races but just ran into a couple better on that occasion. Where there's smoke there's fire and can improve enough to take this out. MILK MAID (8) has placed two from two over this track and trip and will strip fitter second-up from the break. In the mix. Former Victorian SAN JUAN (2) was heavily supported when having his first run for the new stable but let backers down when finishing fifth. Can feature despite the sticky draw. CRAIGLEA MONNIE (11) rounds out the selections. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Scialla.
