A strong tempo is assured with Tap High and Possibilities leading the charge. A good contest. POSSIBILITIES (7) has been knocking on the door and didn't shirk the task placing over 1800m at Eagle Farm. Winning rider Maloney is reunited today and the Waller-trained galloper deserves another chance. KURITHEA (8) won her Maiden over a mile at Doomben and then stepped up to this distance at Eagle Farm in stronger and things didn't work out from the awkward barrier. This suits better and it won't surprise to see her settle handier. Peaks and the tongue tie is applied for the first time. BOLD BLAZE (4) is third-up seeking the hat-trick off a comfortable win this trip at Rockhampton. He was heavily bet and Wiggins stays aboard. Will be fancied and go well. TAP HIGH (6) did a big job to finish so close at Eagle Farm after a slow off. Gets in well with the 3kg claim and can't be ruled out. SUGGESTED PLAY: Leaning to Possibilities.
