|---|---|---|---|---|

Plenty of pace evident with Rhapsody In Blue and Mume leading the way from Moonlight Day and Diva Dream. MOONLIGHT DAY (8) has a moderate winning strike-rate but performed well when returning from a break last time at this track, finishing second and only half a length from the winner at the end of 1400m after being prominent at the corner. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run this time. LIEN FORT (6) scored his maiden win here last time out over this trip, getting the decision dominantly. Looks well placed and he is a solid top-three hope. RHAPSODY IN BLUE (1) strips fitter off a disappointing first-up effort and is capable of a much better run with that hit-out under the belt. STRIKE NOIR (7) failed to live up to expectations last time out when in the market. That followed a good third the run before. Looks well placed so expect a better run this time.
