Filthy Habits and Kerman Rock to take up the running at a strong tempo. SIMPLY (4) got up late with a strong burst to score at Pinjarra when resuming from a spell and has been runner-up in 2 further starts this season including his last start here 7-days ago over a mile. The extra 600m is ideal and with William Pike staying loyal, he can have the last say this time. FILTHY HABITS (1) is a consistent gelding who has been kept busy since resuming from a spell with 4 starts last month and another run already this month so he won't lack fitness. He is usually setting the pace and was only caught late here a fortnight ago when finishing second by a head. He handles any track condition and will be hard to peg back again. CANDLELIGHT SUPPER (5) has not won for some time but her recent form has been encouraging. The distance suits her. I LOVE YOUR SMILE (2) looks close to a win. SUGGESTED PLAY: Simply to win.
