---|---|---|---|---|
Expecting Sioux Warrior to take up the running with Emmooki Magic and Lotza Bubbles close at hand. JEAN VALJEAN (2) was below his best last start at HQ when failing to finish off. Drops back in trip off a 28-day break. Expect him to be climbing over their backs at the business end. HOWL (1) also disappointed last start but was much better first-up behind the progressive Lingani. Is another that has been kept fresh for this and steps back to a pet trip. Can give this a big shake. SIOUX WARRIOR (8) doesn't win out of turn but is going better than his form reads. Put the writing on the wall last start and is well placed to feature. ZUFASTA (5) got the nose down last start when resuming. Tougher this time but is drawn to get all the favours. THE GOV (3) is yet to strike through this campaign but is knocking on the door. Usually runs well here and is a must for exotic players. SUGGESTED PLAY: Jean Valjean to win.
