---|---|---|---|---|
Dreamtime Jean should have enough pace to lead a low-pressure contest. EEVALINA (6) closed off well last start over an unsuitable distance following a narrow defeat over 1200m here the start prior. She now gets Chris Parnham in the saddle from barrier 2 and a nice drop in weight. Can get back to her best and that would see her hard to beat. LAQUETTA'S GIFT (3) has improved with every run in this time, finishing just 0.9L off the winner most recently. Pike now hops in the saddle and he has a good record when partnering the mare. Will get back in the run but she's sure to be coming home with a wet sail. DREAMTIME JEAN (5) showed enough on resumption in a CL3 when holding his own. Up in trip is ideal and he is a three-time winner here previously. Expecting further improvement and that should see him go close. DANCE OF THUNDER (4) is ticking along nicely in Open company without winning and appears well placed in this event. GALAXY AFFAIR (2) is better than he showed last start and can bounce back. SUGGESTED PLAY: Eevalina gets the nod.
