Hazy Daze and She Rex to set a strong tempo, joined by Sangue Rosso pushing on. CHUR NIBBLE (2) mixed his form in his debut Australian prep after moving across the Tasman but his peaks are strong. Has jumped out strongly in readiness and appears to have returned in tip-top shape. Bold showing is anticipated. STRATUM PRIDE (7) caught the eye here fresh when making very late inroads. Will appreciate the added trip second-up and is drawn much kinder. Looks the main danger. IRONBAR (4) dropped right out in the straight after a messy run in transit. His form prior reads favourably and Rawiller is a good booking. Can forgive. DREAMS FULFILLED (3) has been struggling of late when tackling stronger company in Saturday grade. Will find this easier and is worth keeping in mind. SUGGESTED PLAY: Chur Nibble to return a winner.
