Genuine tempo from Gingerbread Girl leading Magic Belle. GINGERBREAD GIRL (7) was disappointing fresh over 1400m, but dropped right back in trip and was very good last time out at Albany. While this is much tougher, the rating she put up there was very good and she maps for a lovely run down the Straight course. Can repeat the dose. MASAMUNE (1) resumes from nearly a year off and has been gelding coming into this campaign. He trialled fairly coming into this and CJP hops back aboard for his raceday return. Form is good enough to win, just has to be up to that level off the break. CHOP SUEY (2) just missed over this track and trip last start when favourite in this grade, rattling home late to be beaten 0.2L. That rating stacks up in this field and if he can run up to that figure again, he'll be rig tin the finish. MISTER RAFFLES (4) is on the quick turnaround following a 0.4L defeat at Ascot last week. Racing well and is drawn nicely for the straight course. MAGIC BELLE (5) has to be included on recent performances. SUGGESTED PLAY: Gingerbread Girl can make it back-to-back wins.
