Without a great deal of early pace evident Cheers To Us may lead the way over Boulderoo. FULL DISPLAY (8) has shown plenty of promise in 2 starts and looks ready to peak over 1356m. The extra distance is ideal, she maps to enjoy a perfect run and natural improvement makes her the one they all have to beat. PLAY BOUZOUKI (4) has caught the eye with encouraging recent efforts and looks ready to produce a career-best performance. IDEAS GALORE (9) resumes after showing ability during her first campaign and recent jump-outs suggest she has returned in excellent order. BOULDEROO (1) brings the best exposed form into the race and only needs to reproduce his latest Ballarat Synthetic placing to be right in the finish. VOSSTANIYA (10) can improve sharply from her debut run and appeals as the value runner capable of surprising at attractive odds. SUGGESTED PLAY: Full Display to win this.
