Track: GOOD4   Rain (Max: 33)   Rail: Out 4m Entire Circuit. (Pent: 5.88)  

Expecting Bold Bordeaux to find the lead but there will be plenty of pressure over the sprint trip. KEEP IT REAL (2) broke through for a smart maiden win when last seen at Geelong, getting the upper hand by a head as favourite having just found one better in three previous attempts. He's got race fitness on his side and can go on with it now. BOLD BORDEAUX (1) resumes for his second campaign. He won narrowly on debut when well backed at Kyneton, close up in a handy race in town next time. He can return and take catching. FLOWERDALE (4) resumes. She did some nice things in her maiden campaign when getting over a touch further but has the ability to sprint well fresh. BOHEMIAN ANGEL (6) made nice improvement second up at Pakenham and any further upside sees her go close. SUGGESTED PLAY: Keep It Real to win.
