Strong early tempo with Ray Del Norte and Secret Hell leading the way. YUUKI (13) looks well placed again off the back of a smart maiden win at Swan Hill. She didn't beat much there but was backed off the map to start $1.30 and got the job done with a neat turn of foot from a trailing position. Tipping she can go on with it now and measure up once more. DRAGON SCROLL (7) resumed with a narrow maiden win at Gosford when jumping $1.85, scoring by a head. She's lightly raced and should go on with it. STRONG BOX (3) was a good maiden winner first up at Seymour as an $8 chance and has to be respected off that. SIERRA BLANCA (14) has been thereabouts her past couple and should get a good run midfield, she can add some value to exotics. CATCH IT KISS IT (6) won her maiden on debut at Mornington. She was big odds there but has to be included. SUGGESTED PLAY: Yuuki to win.
