---|---|---|---|---|
Good early pace from Enterprise Lassie, Fearless Thinking and Prime Impact going forward to hold out some other speedy customers. LADY LE DA (10) hasn't been far away in recent outings and put the writing on the wall last start when charging home to miss by a head over this journey at Eagle Farm. That was in a higher-graded race so she looks well placed to go one better. PRIME IMPACT (6) has yet to fire this time in but is suited up to a mile having won two of three attempts and has recorded a win and a placing from two third-up attempts so can peak. SIMPLY REFUSE (12) hasn't been too far away in two runs since a spell, placing here last time. Could be ready to deliver up in trip. SHOWMAN (11) was only beaten 1.7L last time after kicking off the campaign with three placings. Respect. SUGGESTED PLAY: Lady Le Da to strike back in grade.
