---|---|---|---|---|
Platinum Gift is the likely leader at a strong tempo.
I'M ZAC (2) has been right there at the past four outings and looks to be building up to another victory. Drawn to get all the favours from the inside alley and gets some weight off with the 1.5kg claim. Plenty to like about his prospects. RED FEATHER BOA (12) finished runner-up over this track and trip last time out and is another to draw favourably in gate two. Include in calculations. GRANDEUR ROSE (13) has a handy record around this circuit with three wins and four placings from 14 spins. Top-three aspirations. PLATINUM GIFT (11) strips fitter third-up from the break and may earn some minor money. RED TOFFEE (9) best of the rest. SUGGESTED PLAY: Boxed Trifecta 2,12,13,11.
