Solid tempo anticipated with Cayman Island taking charge. PARTY BOSS (7) shoulders a fitness edge and a strong peak from a terrific effort in the Country Champs Qualifier here on Feb 28. Has been freshened with a month and is perfectly placed to play a major role. SPREAD THE LOVE (8) is a progressive type that will be at his top now after being claimed late at Albury. Will take some catching again. MICHELANGELO (4) returns and is having his first run for a new yard. Was a winner when fresh last campaign at Wyong over 1350m. Rates highly and makes plenty of appeal. HIP HIP OLE (6) will need some luck from the car park draw but is worth keeping safe in exotics. Can only improve off what she did first up. SUGGESTED PLAY: Party Boss each-way.
