Genuine tempo anticipated with good speed engaged. TIPPERARY (3) is a 24-start maiden who went close to shedding the tag last time when second over 1200m at this track. Generally performs well here and has registered four minor placings from five tries. Should be in the finish. BELLIGERENT (8) is a six-start maiden who returned last time and finished 12th at this track over 1200m, beaten 11 lengths. Much better than last start. Fitter and looks a strong winning chance on best figures. HEY DIDDLE DIDDLE (5) has been in the betting at both starts but has failed to break through. Most recently finished fifth over 1000m at Greyville, beaten 3 lengths. Right in the mix. SOVEREIGN GEM (2) finished sixth two runs back then did well last start but found a couple better over 1000m at Greyville, beaten only 1.4 lengths. This looks a good race for her and she is one of the key runners.
