Plenty of pace from the outset with Leading Impact and He's A Cool Cat leading the charge. SUMMERTIME MADNESS (3) put it all together third-up when making light work of his rivals at Murray Bridge, sprinting quickly over the concluding stages. Full of confidence now and looks a great chance to make it two on the bounce. ZOUTRAIL (12) is desperate to land her second winning blow but continues to find a few better. Should get every chance from the inside pillar. DAZELLES (5) ran into third behind a very promising one last campaign when resuming before scoring well second-up to share the tag. Strips fitter for a trial win and can make her presence felt fresh. LEADING IMPACT (2) was disappointing first-up off a long break but may be worth another look. SUGGESTED PLAY: Summertime Madness to make it two on the bounce.
