Fast pace assured with Snazzy Snitzel, Love My Louis and Gilbert's Gold leading the charge. UNDERRATED (1) couldn't have been more impressive saluting by over four lengths at Mackay last time out and winning rider Butler retains the ride. Maps ideally for this from gate two and rates among the leading contenders. The well-related SNAZZY SNITZEL (2) (full to G3 winner Dracarys) has a handy record over this track and trip with two wins and a second from five attempts. Winning claims on best figures. MOMENT OF TRUTH (5) gets in well at the weights with the 3kg off and can run a big race while fresh. GILBERT'S GOLD (3) is drawn to get a cosy run from the inside marble and is a definite top-three prospect. MOVE MY LOUIS (9) next best with the claim. SUGGESTED PLAY: Underrated to go back-to-back.
