Plenty of speed with Tommy Flyer, Six Kings and Getty leading A Book Of Days and Trooper. TROOPER (6) keeps raising the bar and chasing his fourth straight victory today. Shouldered the 61.5kg for an effortless on-pace win over 1200m at Moruya as fav in BM58 company. Holds a forward position and has further improvement to come. SIX KINGS (13) produced a solid set of figures when he accounted for a maiden field over 1400m at Bathurst when leading throughout. Kept fresh and can be just as competitive here now the penny has dropped. TOMMY FLYER (5) finished third over 1400m at Orange at his latest appearance on December 15. Can give this a shake fresh. RUBI AIR (10) has been out of the money recently including last start when fourth over 1200m at Wagga Riverside two weeks ago, beaten 3.5 lengths. Suited here. SUGGESTED PLAY: Trooper looks hard to stop in this rich vein of form.
