Genuine pace with Kentucky Blue taking up the running ahead of Pure Mac and Late Arrival. POBLANO (4) didn't handle the heavy deck two back before just missing at Pinjarra last time out over this trip. She now gets the blinkers on for the first time and Pike remains in the saddle. Drawn better now and should get every chance to go one better today. DESERT ORA (3) won four on end before tackling Open 3YO company on a Saturday most recently where she wasn't disgraced. Back to the grade she won comfortably at two back and reunites with Faithfull today. Can bounce back to winning ways. LATE ARRIVAL (1) gets the blinkers on again today after a strong fresh effort at Pinjarra last time out. Fitter for that effort and has enough early speed to offset the tricky barrier. Can raise the bar again now and can end his winning drought. STATE OF FURY (11) wasn't disgraced last time out and can be in the finish again. KOTE (2) can feature third-up. SUGGESTED PLAY: Poblano looks the one to beat.
