Strong tempo assured with Remember The Boys, Musee Du Louvre and Astilla rolling to the front. INKWELL (4) tucked in behind the speed then held his ground but never threatened on debut last start over 800m at Ipswich. Sure to appreciate a longer journey today. Hard to beat in a race with quite a few chances. CAPRICORNUS (3) last raced a month ago when he led and gave a kick but found one better over 1200m at Mackay. Draws a better gate this time. Sure to give backers a great sight. GUNNIE GUNFIGHTER (2) worked home well to finish third when resuming in an 800m Thangool maiden recently. More depth to this but expect him to be far more at home over the extra 250m. Market watch on REMEMBER THE BOYS (1) who has not raced since finishing second in a strong form race here in February 2025. Easy trial winner recently so the comeback looks on track. MUSEE DU LOUVRE (7) has led for home at both runs to date but succumbed late. Has improvement to come and the eight-day back-up is a positive sign from the stable. SUGGESTED PLAY: Inkwell each-way.
