A solid tempo on the cards with Hit Snooze leading the way. BUBBLES'N'FROTH (5) placed here first-up and is an improved galloper. He draws wide again, but Wiggins is a key jockey switch and count on him to manage. Fitter and the extra metres suit. HIT SNOOZE (7) led and was back on track placing in the same race. She has an inside gate and keeps a 3kg claim. That brings her right into it. INNOVATES (2) is ex-Sydney and quickly found form winning a Cairns Maiden from the speed. May need a touch longer now, but his NSW provincial figures read extra well and he looks well set. HOLD MY HALO (8) deserved the big Maiden win here 7 days ago and may go on with it now. SUGGESTED PLAY: Leaning to Bubbles'n'froth.
