---|---|---|---|---|
A few sit handy but there won't be a great deal of early pressure. SETHNIQUE (2) ran a very handy race at first start for new stable. Fitter for it and the extra 200m looks right in his favour. Drawn to get every chance to make a big impact. ZOU DE LAGOS (4) is a big watch at his first run for the new yard after four starts in Victoria. Largely wasn't disgraced in them and any support might be significant. SPEED OF GOLD (3) made some ground over the short trip when runner-up at Scone first-up. Fitter for it and out sharply in distance but did run a couple of handy races at the trip last time in. Keep in mind. BOLE LE (1) is a watch first-up off a trial win and HEARTFELT AWARD (9) next best. SUGGESTED PLAY: Sethnique to win.
