Fast pace assured with Big Sky Country, and Flaming Conquest leading the charge. STELLAR LADY (11) is a consistent mare who has hit the top-five in all four starts to date and looks like the galloper in this field with the most upside. Rates a significant threat. BIG SKY COUNTRY (5) has won five of his past seven and is racing with a lot of confidence. Top-three candidate. BECAUSE THE NIGHT (8) has won over this track and trip and looks one for the exotics players. FLAMING CONQUEST (1) next in line with the 3kg claim. SUGGESTED PLAY: Boxed Trifecta 11,5,8,1.
