---|---|---|---|---|
Solid pace likely with Mandragorian prominent along with Alpha Flight crossing from an outside gate. ALPHA FLIGHT (5) went close to making the perfect return at Balaklava. Better for the hit-out and has gun hoop in Crowther sticking. The one to beat. KINGSON (2) returns. Didn't cause a threat in his last two starts of the prep when tackling tougher opposition. Well-placed for this first-up assignment over a track and trip he relishes. Trial in has him ready to fire. FOX DUNNETT (3) also returns and is 1/1 at this venue. Attracted plenty of market support last campaign without paying. Strips fitter for a pair of soft trials and is drawn softly. Can play a role on best efforts. Smaller cases can be made for resuming duo of HE'S ABEL (4) and UTILITARIAN (7). SUGGESTED PLAY: Alpha Flight to win.
