Emsies Girl to take charge ahead of Boom Bunny at a good tempo. SENSEI GIRL (3) is unlucky to still be a maiden placing in all three outings this time in work and strikes a very winnable contest here. Jokic sticks in the irons following the last couple of efforts and should be right there when the whips are cracking. Former NSW galloper OVERLAND (2) wasn't too far away here when having the first run for the new stable and will have come on with that run now under the belt. Shapes as a leading hope. BOOM BUNNY (4) has placed four of seven over this track and trip and will be rock-hard fit for this. In the mix. FOXY CHEVAL (9) strips fitter second-up from the break and maps nicely for this from gate three. One for the exotics players. VAN DER WOODSEN (11) next best in a race with only a handful of chances. SUGGESTED PLAY: Boxed Trifecta 3,2,4,9.
