A solid tempo is on the cards with Lone Force and Savaii pushing for the lead ahead of Treasurer and Toroness. SAVAII (2) is in a smart stable and brings a long-head defeat from the Gold Coast in a 65, this trip. Has gone well at Goulburn NSW prior and will use the inside gate. He can go on with it. LONE FORCE (4) spiked his figures, winning easily this trip at Gatton at 70 level. He placed his only try this course/distance and looks to have turned the corner. Has Lloyd aboard and should get every chance to repeat. SMART ACTION (1) won a CL1 at Doomben over 1650m with a bit in hand and then was outgraded there in a 70. Drops back to 1400m off a brief freshen with a handy 3kg claim and maps to advantage. TORONESS (5) got too far back at Ipswich for the new yard but had been going well at Toowoomba prior. Won her only 1400m start and her best would have her in the mix. MERCHANT LADY (6) won over 1500m at Kilcoy and tumbles in weight this grade with a 4kg claim atop. Can't be ruled out. SUGGESTED PLAY: With Savaii.
