There looks to be okay pace and pressure in this Listed event around two turns. DARK DESTROYER (1) was ridden in front last time and got swamped. Has won on dry and wet ground. His best would win this for sure. Is a G1, G2 and G3 winner. VAL DI ZOLDO (10) is a multiple class dropper and she has 4kg less to carry too so looks a weight special. Proven on dry and wet. ELEGANT LADY (6) is a trifecta and first four must in this field. She has won on dry and wet ground. THE FEARLESS ONE (8) he is a chance here and drops 1kg too. Has won on dry and wet ground. SPORTING CHANCE (11) has been course placed. He has not gone a poor race this time in. Include everywhere. SUGGESTED PLAY: Dark Destroyer and Val Di Zoldo are win wagers.
