A strong gallop is likely with Hellabella and Flightcrew taking up the running, closely attended by Moscow Maid and Blitzgal. TAXATION (5) returned in good order with a close-up second over this track and trip and will have derived a stack of benefit from that hit-out. Gets McDonald back in the stirrups from the favourable draw and can go one better against this line-up. BLITZGAL (9) returns from a lay-off. Finished fourth in most recent trial at Rosehill. Opened last campaign with a win at Rosehill over 1400m. Key runner fresh. FOUND THE GOLD (11) returns from a break. Placed in a recent trial. Opened last campaign with a win at Newcastle over 900m. In the mix. MOSCOW MAID (14) was too good for maiden class at Hawkesbury last start when resuming. Tougher here but could go on with it for the Hawkes barn. SUGGESTED PLAY: Leaning towards Taxation.
