Tizso Fab to take charge ahead of Moktaffy at a strong tempo. OBLIGATED (5) is a well-performed sprinter who was quickly back in the winners' stall over 1200m at Townsville ($2.0F). Has won 2/4 second-up and maps for the run of the race. Has more to give and can go back-to-back. TIZSO FAB (10) has been flying at 65 level and the speedy galloper tumbles in weight. That brings him right into it and he's the threat, JOURNALISM (6) has been mixing trips but is a capable galloper who can get into the trifectaif he puts his best foot forward. LOGAN STREET LION (1) resumes and will race over further. Will likely find this a too short, but he has performed on the fresh side and should be running into it. SUGGESTED PLAY: Obligated to win.
