Genuine pace with Quanah finding the front but it won't be a picnic with a few other speedy types engaged. Decent race with several horses on the cusp of a deserved win. I LOVERAIN (8) has been solid in both runs this campaign, including last start where he went forward and was nabbed late. Back to 1100m here looks suitable, as does the likelihood of another wet track. He can win. COOL THE JETS (1) is flying this campaign and the stable has found his sweet spot. He goes up in weight but he looks a winning chance again. PRODIGAL LAD (4) is drawn perfectly and will find this easier than last start, as will ALOHA BLUE (9) who has been racing well in metropolitan grade. Including JUSTICA'S BONUS (6) in wider plays. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing I Loverain to win.
