Expecting Zoubeauty to find the lead but there will be plenty of pressure over the sprint course. A good contest. ZOUBEAUTY (10) resumes for a top metro stable, and this is winnable if she's presented on song. She races forward and brings two narrow defeats at this level, heavily bet. She's in well with the 2kg claim, and is the one to be with if the money comes. PATINO RUBY (2) led and won an Open here by a space and then didn't race again for 1163 days before resuming with a close-up effort at the Gold Coast. She's continued to improve since, and fourth up is ready to show her best. The in-form Nock is booked, adding to the confidence. MANAGE THE CYCLE (13) won a 58 here and then repeated the dose at Scone as favourite, and it was a mighty effort after settling last in the 12-horse field. He's been kept on the fresh side and tumbles in weight. That brings him into it. SPECK (9) was narrowly beaten in a Randwick Highway before spelling, and second-up can show more. FEMME FATALE (4) is up to this at best and has switched from a metro barn in Queensland, freshened. Keep onside. SUGGESTED PLAY: Zoubeauty if the race day betting suggests stable confidence.
