Genuine tempo with the speedy Grafting leading the way. TEMPTING CONZA (14) is a Hellbent filly stepping on debut for the Munce camp. Has come along nicely at the trials and is expected to make a bright start. PIPPIE POMAR (12) finds the maiden win elusive but turned in a good effort last start at Doomben when tacking on gamely into fourth. This is easier and she's drawn cosy. Up to this. GRAFTING (1) returns for the Dunn camp. Showed positive signs in his debut prep but just struggled to put a full race together despite the market support. Has been fitted with two trials and keeps Heywood from the most recent. Drawn kindly and is one of the main hopes. SO SAIN (13) was too bad to be true fresh and can improve sharply second-up. SUGGESTED PLAY: Tempting Conza to make it a winning debut.
