Solid tempo anticipated with Be Friendly taking charge. Former NSW galloper MISS REILLY (6) has transferred to Waller's QLD stable now and will find this easier than what she faced down south. Has placed two from two when fresh and should take some beating in this line-up. TIPPED OFF (4) returned in good order with a runner-up finish at Warwick and will have come on with that run now under the belt. Right in this. BOW TIE AFFAIR (1) is facing the starter for the first time but has shown ability at the trials and any market confidence must be noted. BE FRIENDLY (3) gets 2kg weight relief with the claim and may earn some minor money. SUGGESTED PLAY: Miss Reilly to break through.
