Tricky one to map with a number of debutants but over this trip there is good speed anticipated. BOUTIQUE BELLE (10) made good late ground last start to grab second over 1200m here. Peaking now fourth-up and draws kinder for Pike. Looks the one to beat. PHOTOSYNTHESIS (12) fair debut when fifth at Ascot over 1200m starting at $17. Gets the blinkers applied and can only be improved. UNIVERSAL TALK (1) was prominent at the turn and finished third last time. Strips fitter third-up and there's no reason he can't go a couple better. ARTIE'S AFFAIR (5) three-year-old gelding (Artie Schiller - First Affair) will no doubt benefit from the three trials leading in today's debut. Watch for any market confidence. SUGGESTED PLAY: Boutique Belle to win.
