Early Fusion, Chilli Palmer and Mr Grey to battle for the lead at a cracking tempo over this sprint journey. EARLY FUSION (2) won his last race very easily despite having a slipped saddle and gets to remain in the same grade. He only has to carry an extra kilo and should be the one to beat again. CHILLI PALMER (3) has plenty of pace and has been racing on the picnic circuit lately with mixed results. A wide draw is no help but he is not out of this with some early luck in the running. Each way value. LUVIN' OUR GRACE (11) has been freshened up since finishing a well-beaten fourth at a Dingo picnic meeting 5 weeks ago. She is suited by the pole position and having Ryan Wiggins in the saddle is always a plus. Include in all combinations. MIL CIENTO (8) handy gelding who finished fourth last start but was beaten only half a length over 1100m at Rockhampton. Worth consideration. SUGGESTED PLAY: Early Fusion to win.
