---|---|---|---|---|
Taltarni Fields and Maximum Vortex to apply plenty of early pressure over the sprint journey. TALTARNI FIELDS (5) hasn't done much wrong with two wins and five placings from just seven career outings to date and should appreciate the drop back in grade here. Only needs to replicate the last-start victory to be saluting again. ADDRIEL (3) is first-up here but is yet to miss a drum in three fresh attempts and must be respected from the astute stable. Keep very safe. MAXIMUM VORTEX (4) returned in fine fashion with a close-up second over this course and distance and is drawn to get all the favours from the inside alley. Has won two from three when second-up and cannot be discounted. ROLLING ROCK (7) is one from one around this circuit and gets in well at the weights with the claim. In the mix. CELESTIAL SOL (6) next in line. SUGGESTED PLAY: Taltarni Fields to win.
