Solid pace on the cards with Zaconic and Heartofaces who like to get rolling early. OCEAN MELODY (6) has been racing a lot more genuinely this year, and her last couple of efforts have been good on tracks that were firmer than she prefers. All of her 3 placing have been over this trip, and with some cut in the ground, she can break through for an overdue win. DANCING FANTAIL (3) found the line strongly when finishing third at his first attempt over a middle distance. He seems to like having some space between his starts, and in this field, he will be hard to hold out. BILLY (4) has run the odd good race, and he must have needed more time to mature. He resumes with a trial last month under his belt, and as it is with all runners from the Myers stable, the market is the best guide. BOLD BRO (2) out together a pair of decent efforts at Waverley, and on his hone track here, he is well worth including in all top 4 combos. SUGGESTED PLAY: Ocean Melody can win this.
