|---|---|---|---|---|

Moderate tempo with Bias leading the way and a few others keeping in touch. GODZILLA (6) is knocking on the door of another victory with four consecutive placings and strikes a very winnable contest here. Gets the deadly Gollan/Maloney combination and should be going very close against this lot. EXPRESS PAYMENT (4) was a touch disappointing at the latest outing when well in the betting but where there's smoke there's fire. Boasts a win over this track and trip and can bounce right back to form here. SMART AS SMART (3) strips fitter third-up from the spell and should get a gun run in transit from gate two. In the mix. KATDEEL (5) best of the rest. SUGGESTED PLAY: Godzilla to get a well-deserved win.
