Hunters Arrow to set a strong early tempo booting up inside Son Of Erupt and Tibbott Bourke. TIBBOTT BOURKE (3) raced from a handy position over 1400m last time and fought hard all the way to the line, finishing second of nine. He is having his peak run today and should be cherry-ripe. He is likely to race up on the speed from his good draw of three and may be hard to peg back. BUZZ BOMB (4) stayed on well at the finish over 1400m last time out but found one too good on the day. He will enjoy the step up to 1600m and should give his older rivals a decent run for their money. HOODWINKED (10) produced a promising debut effort over 1200m on this course last start. He would have come on from the run and should like the rise to the mile. With the natural improvement that is expected, he should be competitive. PALERMO (1) has shown improvement in each of his outings to date. He is having his peak run and with luck in the running can place.
