A solid tempo on the cards with Belnera heading them off. AUTUMN BREAK (6) is on debut for the Kym Davison stable. Three-year-old gelding by The Autumn Sun. Comes here off a recent trial win. Should measure up. Keep a close eye on betting. BELNERA (3) failed to live up to the firm quote on the Riverside track last start but can bounce back sharply third-up, in what should be better conditions. Has enough early muster to offset the sticky draw and can give this a big shake. LOVEHUNTER (5) returns after 435 days. Now with the smart Luke Pepper team, who does a great job with tried horses. Will most likely need the run (or two) but would be silly to write off the stable. JUSTENUFFSPLASH (10) is a first-starter by Rich Enuff. Fitter for some strong lead-up work. Definitely worth consideration. PURE MELODY (12) was sound on debut to finish at Forbes. Obviously has upside and is worth keeping safe in exotics. SUGGESTED PLAY: Siding with Autumn Break to win.
