Plenty of pace from Simply Luscious, Bokeem and Boudica Warrior vying for the lead, with a few others keeping them honest. MR MARKLE (5) resumes. He didn't fire in three runs last time in, okay fresh in a much stronger race in town before striking two wet tracks and hating the conditions. He's still lightly raced and his best form looks very strong for this with conditions to suit. EL SALTO (1) is an 8yo with 85 starts under the belt. He doesn't win out of turn but is ticking along okay and ran well for a narrow fourth at Donald last time out. His best is good enough. WAREO ROAD (7) resumes having run a solid race fresh at Swan Hill last time in. He can mix his form a bit but gets Harry Coffey aboard and should run well. SIMPLY LUSCIOUS (10) has rough claims. SUGGESTED PLAY: Mr Markle to win.
