Mr Ribtickler and Lady Nancy to take up the running at a strong tempo. TASSORO (2) improved last time out and got through the conditions well to finish within a length of the winner at Gawler. Is open to further improvement third-up on short turnaround and gets in well with the 2kg claim again. Ready. MR RIBTICKLER (1) resumes and is having his first outing under new trainer Kristi Evans. Finished fifth at Terang over 1600m at the opening run last time in work. Has trialled sharply in readiness, stripping fitter for two wins, and can make a bright start in the new colours. MYSTRIX (10) bounced back sharply third-up when sent forward, only to be run down late by two better. At her top now and should prove even tougher to stop. TOOK GARDNER (8) was no match for an impressive winner last time at Gawler but he's sure to have come on from that and draws well again with the claimer sticking. Chance to go one better. SUGGESTED PLAY: Tassoro gets the nod.
