Sinister should spear straight to the front of the small field. SINISTER (6) led them up at Newcastle last start and was far too good, winning by 1L for an all the way win. The step up to the mile doesn't pose an issue and he can navigate the tricky draw once again. Ticks plenty of boxes and can bring up back-to-back wins. JAMARNI (1) has been close his past couple, finishing 1.5L off the winner most recently at Moruya. This looks to et up nicely for him once again as he stays at a mile. Can continue his good run of form. TRIANON (4) has been around the mark in recent runs and is worth thought out to the mile now. FAIRHEAD (8) got back and was never in the race first up, but is expected to show good improvement back in grade. SUGGESTED PLAY: Sinister can repeat the dose.
