Solid pace with Iceberry finding the front but it won't be a picnic with a few other speedy types engaged. CABLE DANCER (2) is coming off a strong placing at Mornington over 2000m in a much stronger race, beaten under two lengths on that occasion. Should be even fitter again now fourth-up with the rise to 2200m suiting. Hard to beat in this grade. SPACE EQUITY (4) is a 9yo gelding racing in good form of late, third at Edenhope in the Apsly Cup two back and very good when second at Morphettville last time. Only has to hold that form to go close. LOOK SHARPISH (3) has just been fair of late but does drop a fair way in class for this and her best would go close. FIRST DAY (6) is the one with some upside off a Tatura maiden win. More depth here but she's not out of it. GUNNAFLY (8) can challenge for a place. SUGGESTED PLAY: Cable Dancer to win.
