---|---|---|---|---|
Without a recognised leader, Sunlord and Loch Awe will likely set the pace. A good contest. Gollan-trained ADDITION (9) came from the back and missed a nose at the Sunshine Coast over this trip. Started a 2.6F and can race handier today. Thompson is reunited and she can go one better. DIVAKARA (2) was beaten a whisker at the Sunshine Coast over 1600m third-up, running his best race. The extra metres will hold no fears and he has weight relief with the 3kg claim. A player. Ditto SUNLORD (5), who is busting to win. Carries 4kg less at this level, and the in-form Maloney is reunited and has won on the gelding. Just needs average luck in the run. OUR ORATOR (4) maps for a soft run and is at the peak of his form. He could bounce back without surprise. SUGGESTED PLAY: Leaning to Addition.
