Solid tempo with Suisse Scandal leading from Kirella Shores and Gold Dazzler. VILLANDRY (1) finished third two runs back at Rockhampton then improved last time out to score by 3 lengths as public elect over 1400m at this track. Adam Sewell scored on him last time and retains the mount. Taking on a better field but he is good enough to figure in the finish. RESOLUTE LADY (6) turned in a strong run last time when third here just nine days ago. Backing up quickly over the longer journey. Jumps from a wide barrier but should be in the finish. GOLD DAZZLER (2) finds it hard to win but ran a strong race last time when beaten 0.9 lengths into second over 1400m at Dalby. Should enjoy a good run just off the speed and is capable of testing this field. SUISSE SCANDAL (5) did well to score two runs ago then turned in a decent effort last time out when second over 1400m at this venue, beaten 3 lengths. Worth another chance. SUGGESTED PLAY: Villandry to go back-to-back.
