Fast pace assured with Bold Alliance, Smoke 'N' Darts and Mega Pixel leading the charge. ESCARGOES (5) is a locally trained gelding resuming after having mixed success last time in. Sent out at his fourth run for the prep when disappointing as fav with a narrow second over 1200m at Moruya in a Super Maiden. Key jockey change today with the two lead-up trials and expected to go close from the low draw. MEGA PIXEL (2) racing first-up today after finishing close-up in all three starts in the first prep. Primed for this with the two good trials and he shouldn't be a Maiden for much longer. GALACTIC FORCE (14) kept fresh and having his first start for the Sara Ryan yard. Placed once from his five starts in Victoria and drops in weight with a host of gear changes. Stays in the calculations. LAST TOUR (7) chipped away late first-up with an encouraging fourth over 1000m at Wyong. Should come on now with the run and the 3kg claim will help his cause. SUGGESTED PLAY: Escargoes looks primed from the low draw.
