Moderate tempo with Billy The Boss leading the way. GOOD HARMONY (9) is into the fifth run of her maiden campaign but continues to race well and a win looks close. She struck tough conditions when beaten at $1.65 two back, better last time at Werribee when pressing a highly rated horse in Marine Empress who had to really work to beat her. If she can hold the leader's back from the inside gate she'll go very close. NOBLE WORK (7) has raced twice to date, showing nice improvement last start at Werribee when getting into a narrow fourth after a debut run without much luck. He should appreciate this trip now and can improve again. VEINS WITHIN ROCK (3) has placed in his past two, no match for the winner last time but solid in what looks a decent form line. He should be right there again. ADMIRE FLUKE (5) is an Admire Mars gelding on debut for the Laurie yard who can run well ahead of MONTANA ROSE (8) who has place claims. SUGGESTED PLAY: Good Harmony to win.
