Big field with a lot of pace engaged so expecting a strong tempo. VITTOZZI (7) raced without luck in provincial company at her two runs back and gets map favours here. Warmed up late in the heavy going when fifth over 1000m at Gosford. Ready for the 1200m and has solid top-three claims. IRON FURY (1) another from the Nathan Doyle yard with winning claims. Comes back in trip after he showed plenty of grit to finish third over 1350m at Wyong. Claim helps and a win looks imminent. BY THE WAY (6) accounted for a Maiden field fourth up over 1200m at Moree. On the quick backup and must be considered. ALL TOO SNEAKY (11) win record hardly excites and improvement is anticipated in this class. Covered ground in the run before fading to run sixth over 1200m at Newcastle. One for the exotics. SUGGESTED PLAY: The Nathan Doyle trained pair can fight out the finish.
