Solid tempo set by Flying Bat and Carnegie Hill. WOUNDER (8) has been plying her trade in harder NSW contests and should find this assignment much more to her liking. Hails from the champion Waller yard and is sure to be right there when the whips are cracking. FLYING BAT (1) has hit a purple patch with two wins and a placing from his past three starts and is racing high on confidence of late. Gets 3kg weight relief with the claim and should play a role in the finish again. GAGNANTE ENCHERE (6) has a handy record around this circuit with a win and two placings from just four spins. In the mix. The well-related CARNEGIE HILL (2) (full to G3 winner Jimmy Recard) saves his best form for this distance range and must be included in calculations. ROSSO LEVANTO (3) is a last-start winner who shouldn't be slept on. SUGGESTED PLAY: Siding with Wounder.
