---|---|---|---|---|
Little early speed on offer so Bullion Boy should be prominent. BULLION BOY (3) has placed four of five around this circuit and has been racing very consistently this time in work. Sticks at the mile now and should be right there when the judge calls a halt. TIME QUEST (1) just missed the placings in a harder Randwick contest last time out and is a four-time winner over this distance range. Expected to play a major role in the finish. VICTORY WIN (6) strips fitter second-up from the break and gets the services of Maloney in the irons. Top-three credentials. YET HE MOVES (4) has a handy record here with three wins and two placings from eight spins. Keep safe from the Waller yard. EXTRAORDINAIRE (9) rounds out the selections down in the weights. SUGGESTED PLAY: Bullion Boy to continue the rich vein of form.
