Bombay Style is the probable leader in the small field. COLLECTIVE (4) is hard to knock on recent performances, winning two on-end and three of his past four at this track. Kyra Yuill hops in the saddle now and she has a winning record when riding. She drops right down in the weights following a good win as the $1.45 favourite last time out. Can bring up the hat-trick. DREAM TO ME (2) stuck on well first-up from back in the pack to finish 4.4L off the winner. She's won 2/3 second-up in the past and steps right up to a more suitable distance. Maps to get her chance off the inside barrier and is sure to go close. BE SEATED (5) just missed last start behind Collective when sitting near the back of the pack. He hasn't won for a long time, but he rates highly off his latest performances and is not to be discounted. BOMBAY STYLE (1) is racing well in recent efforts but drops back in trip today. That doesn't look an issue though and he won't be far away. SUGGESTED PLAY: Collective can bring up the hat-trick.
