Tactical. A small field but competitive. BINE (7) resumed on the synthetic and didn't have the best of it. Looked in need of the outing regardless and with weight relief and extra fitness the promising mare will be much sharper today. She can race forward and wins at best. BOLD INSTINCT (6) resumes and has won 2/5 fresh. Gets in light this grade with a 2kg claim atop and rates a chance. CARTOON GRAVEYARD (2) resumes and is also proven fresh. He has a tidy record and owns a recent 850m trial win at the track. ROYAL AND TOUGH (5) presents fitter but may be looking for longer now. SUGGESTED PLAY: Bine appeals most.
