Expecting Pride Of Ashleigh to take control at a muddling tempo. WHISKEY TOWER (14) failed to get into the contest on debut before turning it around sharply when a sound 1.1 len fourth over 1600m at the Sunshine Coast on April 12. A repeat of the latest should see her play a leading role today. TURPIN'S TORMENT (4) 16-start maiden who looks close to shedding his maiden status. Loomed strongly when a narrow second over 1600m at Tamworth on April 8. Has the figures to go one better today with the senior rider engaged. YARRA PRINCESS (8) improving with racing and a win looks imminent. Made up good ground late when fourth over 2060m at Doomben on April 17. This looks easier and should go close to shedding her maiden status. THE RIDDLER (3) holding form well and looks better suited over this trip. Ran on late when third over 1400m here on April 14. Placed this trip three back and stays in the mix. SUGGESTED PLAY: Box Quinella 14,4,8,3.
