---|---|---|---|---|
Good pace expected with Piccolo Fiore, Mickio and La Plage paving the way. DIWALI (3) stepped up to this journey last time in tougher company at Sandown and hit the line hard to finish second in a photo. Looks really well placed here on that run and expected to go close. MICKIO (5) is another close to a win. After a solid return has been runner-up last two, the latest over 2809m at Kyneton. Genuine and gets chance. TURFIE (9) started favourite and won two back then was well fancied again but a little below par last time. Ready for the longer trip now and rates highly on best figures. LUCKYHELEFT (1) ran an improved race second-up when out in journey and worth noting is a third-up winner. Extra trip ideal and looks ready to find best. LANDGRAVE (4) has been racing in much tougher grade lately and not beaten far. Comes back a notch or two and can find some winning form. SUGGESTED PLAY: Stay with Diwali.
