Puissance Playboy should have enough pace to lead a low-pressure contest. PUISSANCE PLAYBOY (3) sat back at Esperance last start and rounded up his rivals with ease, bolting in as the odds-on fav to win by 4.2L. That was an impressive performance and he rates highly in this field off that. Can adopt similar tactics this time around and bring up back-to-back wins. SKYTALKER (1) has been knocking on the door for a while and just missed here two starts ago. He should get every chance from a good draw and while he carries a big weight, he deserves to with the form he brings in. Can make his presence felt. LORDGIVEMESTRENGTH (7) was too good from the front over 1900m last start and comes back to 1500m today where he has placed 2/4. The wide draw is a query, but his latest effort stacks right up and another forward showing is on the cards. TOUSLED CROWN (4) is better than we saw last time out and can make her presence felt. DIABLO LAD (2) can improve with an inside draw and with the blinkers being reapplied today. SUGGESTED PLAY: Puissance Playboy can repeat the dose.
