Miss Force has good early speed and can set a decent tempo. Former Victorian EXUBERANCE (9) is having her first run for the new stable but should find this easier than what she was facing down south. Tuned up for this with two recent solid trials and trust that Gollan has her up to the mark. Can return a winner. EAGLE'S FIRE (11) has placed four of eight over this track and trip and rarely puts in a poor one. Has to be included. SPIRIT OF BRODIE (1) is a consistent commodity who has hit the top four in his past 11 starts and gets some weight off from the low draw. Plenty to like about his prospects. COUNT NICHOLAS (2) is a five-time winner over this sprint journey and maps perfectly for this from the inside alley. In the mix. ROSE NOIR (5) is a last-start winner who shouldn't be slept on. SUGGESTED PLAY: Boxed Quinella 9,11,1.
