Genuine tempo with Miss Moov and Frankfurt leading the way. GROUNDRUSH (1) has needed both of his starts back from a spell since making the move from Victoria and will step up to a more suitable trip of a mile this time. He drops right down in class and is ready now to put his best hoof forward. FRANKFURT (2) has raced his way back into some form again and probably sees out a mile better than most of his rivals. He drops 5.5kg from his last run, thanks to a claim, and he can figure in the top 3 this time. WICKED WISH (7) is still a maiden who is having his third local start after a spell. The mile will suit him, and he might not be the worst option for a top 4 finish. HOLLERBYEBABY (5) ran on late here 18 days ago over 1300m when resuming from a spell. She will relish the extra 300m, and is worth including in all combinations. MISS MOOV (4) has been mixing her form and last raced over a month ago when finishing well back with an elevated heart rate. She is worth another chance in an even contest. SUGGESTED PLAY: Groundrush to find some form again. Each-way.
