Strong tempo with Linkvue, Runchickenrun and Controlled Zone leading the way. LINKVUE (5) led and found more like his best beaten a whisker at Yarra Valley. Fitter again and coming back 109m is sure to take stopping. CONTROLLED ZONE (3) also races forward and brings two narrow defeats. Raced a $2.30 favourite at Ballarat last time and is a threat. DENIAL (4) resumes and has the first-time blinkers applied. He's been off the scene 335 days, but has jumped out twice, and he's good enough. John Allen gets off the above to ride. SEDNA (10) debuts and won a recent jumpout at Geelong. Maps well, and a bold effort won't surprise. SUGGESTED PLAY: With Linkvue.
