Anticipating a strong tempo with plenty of speed engaged. WILBURY (5) undefeated in two starts at this track and improvement is anticipated on the firmer surface. Far from disgraced when a game fifth over 1100m in the Town Plate at Wellington. Has the class to take care of this field. KATTEGAT (4) tough old gelding retaining his zest for racing. Will find this more to his liking after finishing seventh at Warwick Farm in BM72 class. Undefeated at this track and will appreciate the claim from the good gate. MAJOR TIME (6) worked hard from the wide gate and the early effort took its toll late when seventh over 1000m at Canberra in a TAB Fed Open last start. Assess on his good fourth two back over this trip. Improver. NEVER FAILS (8) much better effort second up when he launched late with the 61kg to run third over 1000m at Wagga. Tempo suits and will be strong late with the big drop in weight. The chances don't end there. SUGGESTED PLAY: Box Quinella 5,4,6,9.
