A solid tempo anticipated with Our Addiction and Shere Khan ahead of She's Speedy and Irish Gift. SHE'S SPEEDY (2) is the clear top pick. Super honest mare who made it two wins in a row last start when she scored by 1.5 lengths over 1000m at Townsville. Can make it three straight. OUR ADDICTION (5) led throughout to score over 1000m at Mt Garnet last time. This is no easier but in form and has a strong record with Lacey Morrison in the irons. Sure to be competitive. THREEBROTHERS (1) is a local freshened for this. Racing well at home and is among the leading hopes. FANCY GARTER (4) was well off best last time but previous run solid for this and can improve sharply. SHERE KHAN (6) has been well off best last couple but has good pace and will give a sight. SUGGESTED PLAY: She's Speedy should make it a hat-trick.
