Genuine tempo with Miss Boom to lead but under plenty of pressure in a keen early contest. MISS BOOM (3) is worth forgiving. Was in great form leading up to last start but drew off the track, sat outside the lead and was gassed soon after straightening and dropped out. Better for the run but more importantly draws much better. Can bounce back. LUNA FIELD (2) resumed from a break here over 1100m and boxed on well to hold third. Fitter for it and should feature again. PRESS EXPRESS (4) is a former SA galloper having her first try here and is fitter for two runs back. Has placed 4/5 this trip and best figures more than measure up. BLACK COAL (1) is much better than recent form and can improve sharply. OAKLAND RAIDER (5) has paced 2/4 fresh and re-united with winning rider. Has the talent to take this out. SUGGESTED PLAY: Miss Boom can atone.
