Without a great deal of early pace evident Sparkels Dior may lead the way over Hells Spirit. HOT TODDY (8) went close at Wagga before the spell and looked a run short there first-up. Keeps Kissick and he's got more to give. Has an awkward barrier but he's likely to go on with it this preparation. SMOLENSKI (4) has travelled down from Goulburn and he improved beaten 2.8L at Nowra last time. The gate is against but Heywood is a key jockey engagement and fourth-up he gets his chance. HELLS SPIRIT (7) hasn't threatened this preparation but led and improved at Albury two back before being cruelled by a wide gate there last time. He should enjoy a softer run today, and the 1.5kg claim helps. MO SPIRIT (1) didn't do a lot at Albury first-up, but he's run some tidy races. Has the rails draw today and the longer sprint suits. SUGGESTED PLAY: With Hot Toddy.
