Genuine pace with Goose Step taking up the running ahead of Defiant Boom and Vesper Lynd. SILK SONIC (4) did well last start when she worked home well but found one better over 1000m at this track. At her top now and will prove hard to beat in this suitable race. MY NAME IS (2) comes here off a break of six-and-a-half months. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last prep over 800m at Ipswich. Rates highly and makes plenty of appeal. ZOUSAIN'S CHOICE (6) broke his maiden last start over 870m at this track, scoring by 1.2 lengths. Sparingly raced and has more to offer. Re-unites with Harrison Shaw who was on board last start. Tougher assignment this time but is one of the main contenders. GOOSE STEP (10) was in the firing line on the corner and finished second last start over 1050m at this track, beaten a long neck. In the right race and is a key runner. STARSARISE (8) next best. SUGGESTED PLAY: Silk Sonic to win.
