Moderate tempo with Imperialize leading the way. INSYDE SUCCESS (6) is racing in good order without winning this campaign, finishing 1.2L off the winner here most recently. Stepping back up to 1230m doesn't look an issue and the stable's strike jock McGruddy hops on board. Hasn't won for a while but this presents as a golden opportunity. GOD HAS DRIFTED (2) loves this track and trip and looks poised to strike third-up following a good run over 1100m here last time out. He's drawn well again today with Riordan's 2kg claim coming in handy. He looks to be building nicely this time in work and he can land the knockout blow. KAMAKAZI SHOOTER (4) will find this much easier than what he's been racing in, dropping right back from Saturday grade here. He has enough speed to roll across from out wide and can be in this for a very long way. HEAD'EM (1) is better than he showed last time out and can bounce back to form. SECRET STONES (3) can be in the finish. SUGGESTED PLAY: Insyde Success can get the job done.
