A lack of early speed leaves it open for Smart Energy to run them along. SMART ENERGY (2) was solid on resumption before a big win over 1500m last start at Pinjarra. He showed good speed there and kicked away to win as a short-priced favourite. Cooper claims 3kgs today and she's beginning to hit her straps. Can repeat the dose third-up into the campaign. HEWILLDOUS (5) got a long way back but he was too good at Geraldton when breaking his maiden. The rise in trip looks to suit him and he shouldn't be too far away from the barrier. He appears the main danger. SKY GOD (6) was solid last start at this track and trip and he'll be fitter for that effort. Likely to get back in the run, but he can finish over the top with a wet sail. ROCK DEE JAY (8) is better than he showed last time out and he can bounce back to form dropping in trip. WIFE SAYS YES (9) is another who can improve now in a suitable race. SUGGESTED PLAY: Smart Energy can go back-to-back.
