Genuine pace headed by Golden Crusader who should kick up along the paint. TROSETTEE (4) has placed in all three runs this time in, running on well to grab third, beaten a long neck when out to this track and distance last start. Drops slightly in grade for this and draws well. Won't get many better chances than this. GOLDEN CRUSADER (5) should be set to peak third-up, showing good improvement last start at Sandown-Hillside to grab second. Should improve again out to this trip and will prove hard to catch from the inside draw. GOTTABESAVVY (6) continues to race consistently, running on well to score off a strong tempo at the midweeks last time out. Should be strong late again. GREGOLIMO (1) looked unlucky last start and might be getting back to something like his best which would almost win this. LITTLE JACK (12) is progressive and in the mix. SUGGESTED PLAY: Trosettee & Golden Crusader quinella.
