Genuine tempo from Sir Lunchalots leading Fire And Gemstone. LYSANDER (8) has progressed nicely this campaign and strikes this off a short freshen. Gets in well at the weights with the 2kg claimer engaged and only needs to hold his form to be giving this a big shake. EXTRAVAGANT CHOICE (2) is ticking along nicely and boasts strong form lines. Deserves to carry the top weight but will need a smart steer from the apprentice from a wide draw. SPIELE (11) was much better here last start when charging home to just miss. Is another that has a tough draw to overcome but she carries a feather with the 3kg claimer sticking. SIR LUNCHALOTS (6) was no match for a promising one last start at Albury in testing conditions but still did a good job to finish third. Peaking now and is drawn favourably. Expecting him to give another bold sight. SUGGESTED PLAY: Siding with Lysander. Wary of Sir Lunchalots.
