Pace looks sure to be genuine with The Bus and Skibidi matching motors, closely followed by Sontuoso. OPINE (5) was sound on debut at Gosford when in the market and he didn't lose any admirers there. Lines up here with Small's claim coming in handy, but he'll find this easier and the firmer footing may be to his liking. Had trialled well going into his maiden effort and he can get the job done this time around. MONTE BRAVEHEART (4) was strong to the line in a good return off a very long break. McDougall takes the ride now and although he's drawn wider, that won't be an issue. Should be better again out in distance and he can go one better without surprising. OLIVIA MIA (10) finished off well here last start and gets an opportunity to sit closer in the run this time around. Wouldn't surprise to see her shed the maiden tag. SKIBIDI (6) comes through a good form race at the end of last campaign and won't be far away. KISEMBO (3) can improve on a disappointing performance last time out. SUGGESTED PLAY: Opine looks the one to beat.
