Genuine tempo with Freak On A Lead leading the way. DID YOU DECIDE (6) had to work hard early from a wide gate to settle handy to the pace when resuming from a spell at Launceston just over 3 weeks ago and did well to hold onto third place. He has a better draw this time and will appreciate the extra furlong on offer. He strips fitter and can take this out. OLE OLA (5) has needed both of her runs back from a spell at Launceston and is back to his favourite track third up. He has the right draw and with top hoop David Pires in the saddle, he is ready to put his best hoof forward. Each way. DAYAN STAR (3) seldom runs a bad race and was only a short head back from the winner at Launceston as favourite 15 days ago. He is in a good space and another good run is expected. FREAK ON A LEAD (1) has been freshened since failing in his only start this season at the start of spring and is much better than what he showed that day. He was an easy winner of a recent trial and can't be underestimated in this. SUGGESTED PLAY: Did You Decide to win.
