In the absence of noted leaders, No Comebacks and Nyra may be the ones to set a moderate tempo. Pike on top again here with the resuming REMINISCENCE (2). Caught the eye with two strong chasing efforts from the back in his debut prep and looks to have come on nicely during the break, stripping fitter for two trials. Blinkers go on to sharpen him up and maps beautifully. ENCHANTED MISS (7) was beaten just a neck last start when fresh from a spell and landed her first top-three finish in the process at Albany over 1100m. Looks close to a win and shapes as a genuine threat. HIGHLY IMPRESSIVE (10) is a Pierro mare on debut for the Hunter camp. Won most recent trial and gets in well with the 2kg claim. Wary. FLAVOURSOME (6) returns and while she's found the maiden win elusive there's some solid performances sprinkled throughout her form. Will need a smart steer from out there. SUGGESTED PLAY: Reminiscence to win.
