Reasonable tempo with a few going forward, headed by Stella Bystarlight. Happy to stick with the ultra-consistent STELLA BYSTARLIGHT (2). On the turf was unplaced in all 13 runs but since heading to the NT and been in the money in 17/19 starts. Has won 2/3 course and distance and looks the one they have to beat. PUB CRAWL (5) finished out of the money two starts back then he got a long way back and was beaten 8 lengths when seventh in a 1300m contest at Darwin a week ago. Huge weight drop and can improve sharply. LIMITED RISK (1) is on a quick back-up after finishing sixth in better company five days ago over 1300m at Darwin. Looks well placed so expect a better run this time. VALLEY PRINCE (3) was racing well without winning, finishing in the money on two consecutive occasions, before finishing fifth last time out over 1400m at this track. NASHA (6) is next best. SUGGESTED PLAY: Stay with Stella Bystarlight.
