They should run along at a solid tempo. Tricky race. WICHITALL (7) hasn't been far away of late, starting a $2.50 chance at this track two starts back before running fourth when beaten just 2.3 lengths at Donald. Finds the right race here and should go close. VOLANDER (11) was good over shorter first-up at Sale and should appreciate the rise to 1230m now. She's still lightly raced and won't need to improve much to take this out. ORTEGA (5) resumes. He was around the mark last time in and could figure. SEPOLNO (10) was poor on the synthetic last time but had been good prior and can bounce back. SUGGESTED PLAY: Box Quinella 7,11,5,10.
