Artic Panther should lead but there are a few other speedy types who can keep him honest. ARTIC PANTHER (6) raced near the speed but lacked the turn of foot when asked in an 1100m maiden at Quirindi on Monday. Drops 4kgs after the claim and needs this trip now. Big chance if they opt for the quick back-up. INTERNATIONAL (2) returned from almost a year on the sidelines with a very close second over this distance at Tamworth 18 days ago. Ex-Godolphin who has found his right level and can easily go one better. FLEET FOOTED (4) progressed nicely last time out at the second run of the campaign, making up a stack of ground to finish second over today's distance at Tamworth. Ready to peak at the third run back. SANTOS EL HALPER (9) has been freshened up since failing over this journey at Coffs Harbour seven weeks ago. Placed 2/3 here so worth including. WANDERING JACK (1) resumes. Just missed over this trip at Dubbo when fresh from a spell last prep. In the mix. SUGGESTED PLAY: Artic Panther to win.
