Strong tempo to be established by Kickagoal Kenny, Skogafoss and Spirited.
SKOGAFOSS (3) grows a leg for hoop Murphy who has two wins and four placings from just six steers and is building up a great association. Is yet to miss the top-two in five spins around this circuit and should be right there when the whips are cracking. UPSTART LEGEND (1) let supporters down last time out but the form prior was good enough to feature in a race of this nature. Worth another chance. THE HONEY BADGER (5) strips fitter third-up from the break and looks the runner in this field with the most upside. Top-three credentials. LUCKY LENI (4) has been right there in all three runs since joining the new stable and is one for the exotics players. SPIRITED (7) is a last-start winner who shouldn't be slept on. SUGGESTED PLAY: Skogafoss to salute.
