Solid tempo anticipated with Zou Big Boy leading the way.
RUN RORY RUN (5) impressed when fresh from a spell over 1250m at Taree last start, driving hard late to be beaten under a length in a BM82. Doesn't boast a great second-up record but he revels in heavy going and this step up in distance is ideal. GHOST WALKER (4) continued his excellent recent form with a game second in open company over this distance at Port Macquarie last time out. That run followed a 45-day reset so he should exhibit some improvement here. One of the key contenders. SUPREME COMMAND (1) led all the way for a well-deserved win a fortnight ago at Port Macquarie, defeating Ghost Walker. Goes up 5kgs which is a worry but he loves heavy tracks and is in a rich vein of form. CAPO STRADA (2) improved sharply last start when second-up from a break over 1400m at Inverell. Needs this sort of trip now so another big run looks on the cards. ZOU BIG BOY (10) is a free roller who is racing well but is without a win for 13 months. Each-way chance down in the weights. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Run Rory Run in a race of many chances.

Should enjoy a nice run from the inside gate and on current form is a huge chance. |
