Plenty of pace from the outset with Finest Art and Sibeila leading the charge. RUBELIN (11) tackled the rich Wellington Boot first-up over today's distance a fortnight ago and did a good job at huge odds from an awful gate to finish just 3.4 lengths away. Draws perfectly this time in a far inferior race. Clear top pick. ALL SAINTS (1) had her first run for the new stable and appreciated a drop in grade when a close fourth over this distance at Wellington last time out. Drawn awkwardly but should improve off that last run, the first in seven weeks. SIBEILA (6) is back after a year on the sidelines and is in a new stable. Won a trial at Orange on 22 March. Watch the betting. FINEST ART (3) ran a better race last time. Another step forward here would see her bang in the finish. SUGGESTED PLAY: Keen on Rubelin.
