Cool Storm to take charge ahead of Zouprince at a good tempo. INAZUMA BOY (1) exciting sprinting gelding who keeps raising the bar. Stalked the speed from the good gate with a slick 2.5 len victory over 1100m at Dubbo as favourite. Will handle the rise in weight from the low draw and measure up again. COOL STORM (4) failed to keep up on resumption with a battling seventh over 900m at Muswellbrook. Undefeated at this track and can bounce back over her pet trip. THE EXTREME CAT (2) tough gelding back in grade and can sprint well fresh. Primed for this with the two good trials and look for him charging late. ONYSPEED (9) showed blistering speed from the wide barrier before folding up in the straight to finish eighth over 1400m at Mudgee in the CDRA Champs. Back in trip and gets a better set-up for this. SUGGESTED PLAY: Inazuma Boy can keep the winning momentum going.
