Strong early tempo likely with several going forward, headed by Majority Interest and My Girl Lacey. TRUFFLE FINDER (5) has been a model of consistency of late, placing at his past three and comes through a strong midweek BM70 at Sandown Hillside when third behind a pair of smart types. Rates highly off that effort and gets his chance now. RACKEMANN (2) has run third in both runs back from a spell. He was just behind Truffle Finder when they met at Pakenham and he should be fitter for this match up. RICH AND JOYFUL (7) was good last start at Pakenham and can take catching. MAJORITY INTEREST (3) next best. SUGGESTED PLAY: Keen on Truffle Finder.
