Only a small field with Our Pappy likely to find a comfortable lead. PEAR BELLINI (7) has been in the money seven times from 13 runs and almost added an eighth last time out when a close fourth over 1400m at Taree. Goes well for M Bennett who is back aboard. Draws the fence and should run her usual honest race. OUR PAPPY (1) has been showing tremendous pace before capitulating in shorter races of late. Interesting move to stretch to today's journey. Will give backers a sight. AELFWYNN (8) has been plain of late but might appreciate the blinkers going on. Could add value to betting. IT'S OK (9) is a Kellstorm filly on debut for the Lees camp. Hasn't shown much at the trials but is one to keep safe. SUGGESTED PLAY: Pear Bellini to win.
