---|---|---|---|---|
Genuine tempo on the cards with The Wayfarer leading First Division. PERSIAN SPIRIT (1) has a good record being placed in all three starts to date, including a win at Swan Hill. Bumped into a smart one at Bendigo last time. Looks to have strong claims fresh. THE WAYFARER (2) was rewarded for his consistency with a strong on-pace win at Horsham last time. Jumps in grade here but looks up to the task. SUTADAMU (3) should be at his peak for this contest after two runs from a spell. The extra distance suits and a forward showing is expected. MISS VIGNETTE (6) hit the line well at Bordertown last time before moderate showing at Morphettville Parks last time. Much better placed here. Has claims. SUGGESTED PLAY: Back Persian Spirit to win.
