Genuine tempo with Lumens Lenny leading the way. Looks a wide open contest. GAMBINO (3) has gotten better with each run this time in work and appears to be working up to another victory. Drawn to get a cosy run in transit from gate two and should prove very hard to hold out. HOLY FLASH (2) hit the frame in town last time out and is sure to find this assignment a touch easier. Can make his presence felt. VIXENETTE (9) will be ready to peak now third run back and only needs some luck navigating from the sticky draw to be playing a major role in the outcome. LUMENS LENNY (5) saves his best form for this circuit with two wins and six placings from 12 spins. One for the exotics players. NAILS AND PRIDE (1) is a last-start winner who gets some weight off with the claim. In the mix. SUGGESTED PLAY: Boxed Trifecta 3,2,9,5.
