---|---|---|---|---|
Dusky Dancer will likely press forward early from wide draw. NOBLE STYLE (6) looks suited in this grade on the Poly track where she races well. Has never missed a place in seven starts this track, including two wins. Won in BM62 grade here four starts ago before running in stronger grade races in recent runs. From the inside draw looks hard to beat. CLAUDIUS (12) only has one win from 42 starts but hit the line well in most recent outing for 5th in 1200m Class 1 at Doomben. Gets in with a light weight and certainly wouldn't shock to see him run home into the finish. COSMIC SERENADE (2) had also been entered for two races at Gatton and the BM65 here but this looks suitable. Placed in this grade here last start and gets Jag Guthmann-Chester on from a good draw. RAPID DUDE (11) was fifth in Lismore Class 1 last time and is in the mix on best figures. MISSION TO WIN (5) won on a maiden over the course and distance last September and is first-up since December. Third in a recent trial and should be ready for forward showing. SUGGESTED PLAY: Happy to go with Noble Style to win.
