Pinnacle Point and Grun Wald will press forward in a keen battle for the lead. GRUN WALD (9) opened this prep with a win two runs ago. Fair effort last time out when third over 1400m at this track, beaten 0.6 lengths. Likely improver with strong prospects. PINNACLE POINT (5) did a great job to score by 0.8 lengths over this course and distance last start to maintain his good form of late. Meets some better types this time but he has the talent to test this line-up. CAMPBELL (3) broke through for her maiden win over 1400m at this track last time, scoring comfortably. Looks well placed and she cannot be underestimated. YUNA CLEVER (8) raced on the pace last start and lifted strongly to hold third over this journey at this track. Ready to go a couple better.
