---|---|---|---|---|
Moderate tempo expected with Autunno likely to find the front over Vomo Island and Donegal Lights. VOMO ISLAND (5) winning strike rate hardly excites but brings excellent numbers here. Much better run at second start this time in when he sat on the speed for a plugging second over 1400m on May 28. Has the speed to get across with cover and prove hard to stop. SMART ACTION (8) had mixed luck in two runs back. Sound return when he rattled late to secure second at Scone, before failing to handle the heavy (10) going when fifth over 1400m at Newcastle on June 1. Tongue-tie goes on and can bounce back sharply. FIRE TRIBE (4) close to his peak now and strong through the line late when fourth over 1250m at Canterbury on June 10. Quick back-up suits out to this distance. MONTE MAXIMUS (7) trained on the track and finished third two back over this track and trip on April 27. Kept fresh when he swooped late to win over 1300m at Hawkesbury four weeks ago. Looks to be racing best with runs spaced. SUGGESTED PLAY: Box Quinella 5,8,4,7.
