Anticipating good pressure with many of these at the races for the first time. MILLER'S POINT (6) made some good progress as a 3-year-old, and looked in good nick when winning a recent trial comfortably by a length. A good draw will help her, and she can take this out. FURY OF FLIGHT (4) was a high-priced yearling purchase who had a few tricks up his sleeve on race day. He resumes as a gelding, and now that his mind is fully focused on racing, he can produce something better. Don't risk him. CIAO BELLISSIMA (10) won the latest of 2 trials this season, and with Warren Kennedy in the saddle, she will be ready to rumble. Watch the market moves. RAKONUI (13) is making her debut with the advantage of the pole position, and as a recent trial winner, she will be ready to run a big race. COSMOPOLITAN (11) has been freshened up, and she is not the worst at odds. SUGGESTED PLAY: Miller's Point each way value.
