---|---|---|---|---|
From the wide gate Intruder can cross and lead a race without a great deal of pace on paper. INTRUDER (2) has turned a corner recently with a brace of second-place finishes at the Sunshine Coast, including his last run a week ago. Justin Huxtable is back in the saddle, and the pair can go one better this time. LILY'S DASH (8) just battled home in a tougher field on a testing track at Doomben last time out. She will be peaking at the right time, and from a good draw, she can figure in the finish. BETTER DRAW (7) is resuming from a spell that would have done him the world of good. He has the blinkers off, and from the pole position, he is worth including in all combinations. GLOBAL (1) is on debut and hails from the Bevan Laming stable. Use the market as your best guide. ONE DREAM AWAY (13) is worth including in all combinations. SUGGESTED PLAY: Intruder each-way.
