Expecting plenty of speed from Good Onya Champ, Black Coal and Ballistic Blue from Cuttin' Class. VALEDICTORIAN (9) is a locally trained galloper who has placed five of last six so suffice to say he is overdue. First try at 1400m but hard fit and draw for a soft run. Gets chance. AURORA RISE (11) made her debut in August and after getting back stormed home to finish fourth over 1300m. Returns on the back of two jump-outs and looks hard to beat over the extra ground fresh. CUTTIN' CLASS (6) found on way better on debut with a distant second then was a close-up fifth latest. Also looks suited by the 1400m now and rates a leading player. BLACK COAL (2) resumed from a long break of soft ground and was fair but will strip far fitter for this. Can improve sharply. SUGGESTED PLAY: Stay with the local Valedictorian.
