Strong tempo with Yuna Is Pierata, Crumpets and Qickwit leading the way. XERRI (1) has been mixing his form but has peaks that measure right up for this. Found the line nicely last start to get up for third over 1000m at Dalby. Draws to settle closer and keeps the claimer. Leading player. QICKWIT (10) went forward last start here and fought gamely to finish a close fourth. Has built nicely into the campaign and should be peaking now. Main danger. YUNA IS PIERATA (9) has struggled to threaten so far this campaign but will find this easier and is nearing peak fitness. Willing to give another chance. WANTSOMEMOREOFIT (11) was poor fresh but is sure to have come on from that. In the mix this time. SUGGESTED PLAY: Xerri to win.
