Bonny Impact to take charge ahead of High Ambitions at a solid tempo. HIGH AMBITIONS (1) is a former Victorian freshened for this but comes to Alice fit for the new yard. Has more upside than most and is expected to measure up. TANGO STEPZ (3) is a veteran mare who is a four-time winner fresh but surprisingly is yet to win in 13 tries this course and distance. Has placed at over half of them though and in this line-up should be in the finish fresh. REVOLUTION RISING (4) wasn't far away behind Only The Best last time and meets the winner a couple of kilos better. Long overdue and should be in the mix. BONNY IMPACT (5) is another consistent without winning. Has placed three of four this campaign and deserves a win. LEAN ON ME (7) failed to fire in two runs in Darwin but loves it back in Alice and is expected to improve out of sight. SUGGESTED PLAY: High Ambitions can measure up.
