Genuine tempo from Colonel leading Beauty Destiny. SPEEDY SMARTIE (11) has trialled very well coming into this event and Hewitson remains in the saddle from those outings. He resumes down in the weights and his ratings at the end of last campaign showed he wasn't far away. Can resume in winning form. BEAUTY DESTINY (1) finished over the top to win narrowly right on the wire for Atzeni. Up in weight now, but he won impressively there and there looks to be good speed engaged again. He'll be doing his best work late in the race. RACINGRACE (6) has been good this campaign, finishing only 1.8L off the winner at Sha Tin most recently. He was narrowly beaten here first-up at a massive quote but that rating isn't a fluke. Can return to that level now and make his presence felt. GLORY B (10) is better than he showed last time out and can bounce back in a big way.
