Casino Shaw should find the front with Villa Seventynine and Cossack Warrior on her heels. CASINO SHAW (8) progressive mare who gives the indication the 1400m will suit. Third-up now after she sat up on the speed for a courageous third over 1200m at this track. McLucas sticks and finds the right race. COSSACK WARRIOR (3) racing well with the big weights and is due a victory. Nailed late in the soft (7) conditions with a narrow second over 1300m at Goulburn. This looks easier and shapes as the main danger. MISS SCOOP (7) another with her hoof on the till. Went out fast and knocked up late to finish second over 1200m here. Fitter now and gets a better set-up for this. Each way. SPIELE (10) tough old mare who ran a better race when fourth over 1400m here. Races best with runs spaced and senior rider hops aboard. Place best. SUGGESTED PLAY: Casino Shaw and Cossack Warrior can fight it out.
