Speedy Smartie can work over from a wide gate to lead. DANCING BLAZE (5) sat handy but was no match for the winner on debut on wet deck here a fortnight ago. He jumped a $4.80 there with some good trials coming in and Moreira remains in the irons. He'll be better for the debut performance and with improvement on the cards, he can get the job done. THE CONCENTRATION (13) has dipped his past couple over 1400m and drops back to 1200m today. He may be looking for a drop in grade, but his form three and four starts ago was very strong and he's starting in the market his past couple. Can feature with no weight on his back. MALPENSA (2) sat handy and got the job done by a head at this track and trip 28 days ago. Suspect they'll adopt similar tactics today for Orman and the form out of his last start has worked out well. Can go back-to-back. SPEEDY SMARTIE (1) can roll across from out wide and turn in a bold sight from the front.
