Pace strong with Denise's Gal and Takethemoneyandrun leading with Royal And Ready nearby. GRAFOLOGY (11) is a five-start Maiden who could only manage to finish seventh at his latest appearance over 1600m at Kembla Grange. This looks a nice race so expect him to be right in the finish. ROYAL AND READY (4) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 5 lengths when fifth over 1500m at Muswellbrook two-and-a-half weeks ago after being in the firing line on the turn. Won't find this as tough and is one of the main contenders. OMINOUS (2) missed the placings two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 1600m at Tamworth, beaten only half a length after being in contention on the bend. Finds a suitable race and can get the job done. DENISE'S GAL (7) has been racing consistently including a last start third over 1600m at Wellington, beaten 0.7 lengths. Likely to be about the mark again. SUGGESTED PLAY: Grafology will appreciate the sharp class drop today.
