No surprise if the newcomers played a key role in the tempo of the race with little speed on paper. TANYA SIMONE (11) is steadily building to a win, the latest runner-up over similar journey at Kyneton. At peak and might even sit close in this. Go well. NIC THE CASH (6) was fair on debt then ran a much improved race second time out. Should be further improved and among the main hopes. FOREST JIM (4) has similar form, with a fair debut before an improved second run. Showing ability and shouldn't be far away. ANABAA'S SPIRIT (3) was midfield fresh in a richer race. Strips fitter and can improve sharply here. SUGGESTED PLAY: Tanya Simone is close to a win.
