Good pace with Pride Of Mandy, Embodiment and Collectionneur prominent. Looks an ideal race for the well-bred LANCETTA (8) who strode forward early from her wide draw last start over 1500m at this track then fought on gamely to finish second. Placed prior as well and looks the one to beat with natural improvement. COLLECTIONNEUR (12) did a fair job on debut last time out, finishing 3 lengths from the winner in third over 1200m at this track. Should take plenty from that and up in trip will suit nicely, go close. BRADFORD (2) turned in a decent effort last start to finish third over 1400m at this track, beaten 2.5 lengths. Coming along well and has each-way claims again. CORRETTO (11) made good improvement at start two here when just finding one better and can improve again, consider. SUGGESTED PLAY: Lancetta to win.
