---|---|---|---|---|
Seat Of Power and Fast Talking will push to ahead and set a solid tempo. Hard to knock the form of FAST TALKING (2) with three wins and a close second from his last four runs. Visits Eagle Farm for the first time but was having his first attempt at this journey when he scored by 2200m at Doomben last start. The one to beat. BARADE (4) was the horse that delivered Fast Talking his only recent defeat, running on and proving too strong over 2030m. Has had a month off since but his record at this trip is encouraging. HONORABLE SPIRIT (5) is working up to a win having placed in his last outing at this venue. He is drawn to get the favours. SEAT OF POWER (1) can feature after chasing Fast Talking last start while PHAISTOS (3) looks close to a win off back-to-back placings. SUGGESTED PLAY: Fast Talking to continue his strong form. Backing to win.
