Slick tempo with Beaux Rumble to lead but under plenty of pressure in a keen early contest. Competitive affair. The well-related DAGGERS (8) (half to 2xG3 winner Muramasa) is a former Victorian who just ran into one better over this track and trip when having his first run for the new stable and is sure to have come on with that run now under the belt. Gets the services of gun hoop Berry in the irons and should be right there when the whips are cracking. LET'SFACETHEMUSIC (5) has gone bang bang since joining the Geran yard and is racing high on confidence of late. Include in calculations. BUNDELLA (3) has put a hat-trick of wins together with two of those victories coming over this course and distance. Can continue the picket fence here. ESTRONDO (7) is a bit hit or miss but is more than capable enough on his day. May feature with any luck in running. WINSOME STAR (11) best of the rest from the favourable draw. SUGGESTED PLAY: Boxed Trifecta 8,5,3,7.
