Racy Thoughts is expected to lead at a strong tempo. DAMAS (2) keeps finding one better having been placed at five of seven runs but won't get a better chance to break through. Runner-up at both runs this time in and at his top. Hard to beat again. MORAL TURPITUDE (3) was in the market on debut, sat just off the leaders and boxed on well enough. Open to improvement and a senior rider goes on. May be worth following up. EN FLIQUE (10) showed ability last time in and presents on the back of some solid hit-outs. Has the big claim and bold showing expected fresh. DISTINCTLY SUMMER (9) is a locally trained filly making her debut from an astute yard. Half to Group 1 winner Kimochi. Trialling well and worth watching very closely. Stablemate TRIBAL LANDS (13) has had a few goes and returns after a good break. Form better than it looks and can run a big race fresh at home. SUGGESTED PLAY: Stick with Damas.
