Expecting a strong pace from the outset with plenty of speed engaged. TWAIN (3) won well fresh up and has many more wins to come. He has won when second up as well. Drops a total of 2kg here. Can win once again. SHOES (6) has a very good course record. She has won on both dry and wet footing. Gets a winning 3kg claimer atop here. ILLICIT DREAMS (5) is drawn well here. The mare ran okay here two starts ago and is a place and first four chance. MERCURIAL (1) fresh up here and has won in this state. Dual trial winner so he is very ready to resume. Multiple class dropper in this. Course winner. GOSPODIN (2) ran a sound fourth fresh up. Is a triple course winner. Drawn better this time. SUGGESTED PLAY: Twain can win again. Mercurial after a 4kg claim can take this out fresh up.
