A solid tempo is anticipated with Foo Fighter and O'caldino kicking up to hold out the next wave. DOWN UNDER STUNNAH (9) improving with racing and like the way she attacked the line from the wide draw when fourth over 1700m at Ipswich. Nicely placed from the good gate to get the prize. BRAIN WAVE (11) fitter now and will find this more to her liking. Just under a month between runs when a poor twelfth over 1600m at Eagle Farm. Sharp improver. O'CALDINO (3) up in trip and far from disgraced at his second run back when a plugging fourth over 1600m at the Sunshine Coast. Handles the conditions and is expected to take a hand in the finish. FOO FIGHTER (7) up in class when going out hard before fading to run eighth over 1600m at Eagle Farm. Tongue-tie goes on and look for a better effort with the 3kg claimer engaged. SUGGESTED PLAY: Box Quinella 9,11,3,7.
