Expecting a strong pace from the outset with plenty of speed engaged. VICTORIAN CHARM (8) is a class riser in this line-up. Drops 3kg here too. Well drawn. Can win again in a small field after so many scratchings. EASTANDWEST (7) he has been racing super this time in for a new yard. Much improved type this time in for sure. Quinella and trifecta must in this field after withdrawals. ALMINETTE (11) has had three runs here for a win and two placings. Trifecta and first four must in this line up after so many withdrawals. SPARTAN (1) is a dual winner here. Trifecta and first four must on the Synthetic in a greatly reduced field. EXPRESS COUP (12) is a class riser here. Has run well in last three starts. Cannot be overlooked. SUGGESTED PLAY: Victorian Charm and Eastandwest are win wagers.
