Youthful Spirits and Turquoise Velocity possess good early speed. TURQUOISE VELOCITY (10) bounced back to winning ways at this track and trip most recently when too strong from the front. The form out of that race has been very strong and Keith Yeung remains in the saddle. Should be ideally placed from the draw and he can go back-to-back. THE UNIQUE STAR (5) stepped out to 1200m last start and didn't see out the extra journey following a good run here on debut. The wide draw is ideal for the straight course and he was very impressive behind a good winner here fresh. Can make an impression. TOGETHER WE VALUE (6) was solid here two back before a disappointing run out to 1200m most recently. Purton goes back on board, as do the blinkers for his return to the 1000m journey. Can get back to winning ways today. FAST RESPONDER (7) gets the blinkers on today and won't be far away if he runs to his recent form.
