No noted leader on paper but Cracken Good Time and Xaiambi have enough pace to take up the running from out wide. This looks the right race for LAYIN' UP (8) to break through for a win. She's placed in six of her eight career starts, including both runs this campaign. She'll be peaking third-up and should get the right run from a decent draw. GOLDEN MIKKI (3) is a Victorian with a few minor placings to his name. He doesn't need to improve too much on his best Victorian form to win this. BREAK THE TABOO (6) was hitting the line nicely at the end of 1200m on a heavy track first-up. Up to 1400m suits and she is a genuine top-three chance. CRACKEN GOOD TIME (1) is another that is building towards a peak run, while TENNESSEE MAGGIE (10) is an experienced maiden that can run a cheeky race. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Layin' Up to win.
