A stack of early pressure, primarily from Lipstick Swing and Frisson. LANG PARK (2) has switched yards since going under as favourite last start at Casterton. The form out of the race has stuck up superbly in 29 days with four subsequent winners. Drops back in trip and only needs to hold his form to be winning. LIPSTICK SWING (3) usually races best fresh and goes well over this track and trip. Expecting her to charge forward and prove a challenge to reel in for her rivals. PROPHET'S PRIDE (4) chased gamely to just miss the frame when resuming last time at Moruya. Is sure to have come on with that run under the belt and is among the main contenders. KAPPY'S ANGEL (6) took the gap and let down powerfully to get the verdict on the Riverside track here last start. This is tougher but she warrants plenty of thought on her home track. MR MOPPETT (1) was a strong winner against similar opposition two back. Relishes this trip and needs to be included. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Lang Park to win. Saving on Lipstick Swing.
