Sizzleist and Justenuffsplash possess good early speed. RIDE THE RIVER (2) controlled things well at Kembla in testing conditions and held them off, and he strips fitter third up so can keep the roll going. TALLINGAS IMMORTAL (3) comes through a hot BM62 where she dug in to score and has been kept fresh with 32 days between runs. Gets her chance to bring up the hat-trick. HELLO ROMEO (1) has not struck this prep but has been tackling stronger races and should give himself every chance again on speed in a suitable assignment. SIZZLEIST (6) carries a fitness edge and backs up quickly off her Wagga placing. Stays in the mix. BRIDIE'S LUCK (5) will appreciate a genuine tempo and under the light weight can be the one charging late if the race sets up for a swooper. SUGGESTED PLAY: Siding with Ride The River.
