Blistering early pace from Supreme Times, Tango Stepz and Dakota Lee taking each other on, with a few others in keen pursuit. DAKOTA LEE (1) is a super local mare who is unbeaten in all of her 9 starts on this track. He weight is not too prohibitive for this class and she should be far too good again. SUPREME TIMES (3) has been an honest performer for a long time and thanks to the top pick he too is also nicely weighted for this class. He has a handy gate and can fill the exacta spot. FLYING START (4) seldom runs a bad race and was runner-up behind the top pick when resuming here a fortnight ago. He improves with racing and can run second again. LUSKIN HERO (2) was stood down after bleeding from the nostrils at the Sunshine Coast last spring and has since changed stables. He is the unknown factor in this field and does have good form when resuming from a spell. Watch for any market moves. SUGGESTED PLAY: Dakota Lee to win.
