Good speed anticipated with a large contingent of first starters lining up. Tough race to assess with a majority of debutants engaged. AZYTASS (5) is a filly resuming for the sharp R & C Jolly stable. Failed to make an impression despite the market support on debut back in March but appears to have come back in great order. FAVOURITE CHAIR (2) is a Graff gelding on debut for the O'Connor yard. Has come along nicely in his lead-up work, taking out his last two jumpouts. Draws the A1 and can make a bright start. DINAH BEACH (1) is resuming for Byron Coazamanis. Struggled on debut in a small field but his work in readiness to his return has been strong. Will pay to see what the late money thinks. FARNACE (7) shares a similar profile to the raced bunch - failed in debut prep but looks to have come on nicely. THE MUSCLE (4) is a Dirty Work gelding that has trialled well too. SUGGESTED PLAY: A bit of dartboard job here but I've sided with Azytass.
