Drialle should lead at a keen tempo. GIVING DELIGHT (5) resumed for new trainer Peter Robl in a similar race here three weeks ago when he worked home well but found Colophon far too good. Twice a winner from three second-up attempts. Can improve enough to take this out. SMART RECOGNITION (4) is flying this prep with two all-the-way wins over today's trip from as many runs, the latest in a BM66 at Murwillumbah. Has a solid history here at 1200m and with the claim looks a great chance to chalk up the hat trick. BOONDOCKS (2) is a new arrival in the Les Kelly yard and returns from an 80-day break. Form last prep in better races than this was solid. Can win first-up without surprising. DRIALLE (3) can improve after being overwhelmed late in the piece first-up at Warwick. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Giving Delight and Smart Recognition.
