Plenty of speed with Ellati, Prucia and Toyger leading Outta De Lady and Koondeeman. ELLATI (9) returned from a six-month spell with a respectable fourth over 950m at Moree last start. Started poorly which didn't help but stuck to the task and was only beaten 1.1 lengths. Perfectly placed to put the record straight. INATICK (1) went back from a wide alley then closed late to finish just 2.2 lengths away when resuming over this distance at Dalby last time. Finds a far easier assignment today and has placed three from three when second-up so his credentials are hard to fault. POWERSTONE (7) followed a tough first-up win with a disappointing performance at Inverell on New Year's Day. Four-time winner at this distance so worth another chance. TOYGER (3) dominated over this distance at Kempsey two back then found 800m a bit slick at Ipswich last time. Just needs luck from a wide gate to be competitive. MISS INDI (10) hasn't been far off them at her last couple. Doesn't win often but worth throwing in exotics. SUGGESTED PLAY: This looks a nice race for Ellati.
