Keen speed battle, with Jewels Statement, Speedy Henry and Pareto prominent. SPEEDY HENRY (15) promising Hellbent gelding undefeated in two starts. Returned excellent figures from the wide gate when a slick winner over 1100m at Scone in C1 class. Has the upside to take this out on the limit. JOISELLE (6) snagged back from the wide draw and was a total forgive when seventh over 1000m at Wyong in BM78 class. Since fitted with a 1000m tick over trial and capable of returning to form. ZAMPANO (11) nice return from an outside alley with an eye catching third over 1000m at Muswellbrook. Undefeated second up and both wins are over the 1000m. Leading player. MASSIRA (1) returns from a 56-day let-up after running a tenacious second from the outside gate over this track and trip on March 1. Gets weight relief with the claim and the right set up. Respect. ISCHYROS (10) racing in career best form on the country tracks and deserves his shot in town. Drops in weight and proven at the trip. One for the exotics. SUGGESTED PLAY: Speedy Henry to win again.
