Moderate tempo headed by Vonsnip, Madam Kisses and Mr Mt Walker. VONSNIP (2) was slowly away at Mt Barker and never really got into the race when 4.3L away at the finish. She was in better form prior to that and she loves this course and distance. Faithfull has a great record when riding her and she can get back to winning ways. MAGNABURMA (7) will appreciate getting out to this trip again after getting a long way back at Mt Barker most recently. He was in solid touch at this course and distance prior and he can make his presence felt from a good draw. MADAM KISSES (1) steps out to this distance for the first time and drops right back in grade after contesting a couple of strong races recently. The 2kg claim of ZJP comes in handy and it wouldn't surprise to see her return to form. MAKIN PROPHETS (8) is racing well and looks beautifully placed at this track and trip. MORE LIKELY (4) can go on with the job following a good win here last time out. SUGGESTED PLAY: Siding with Vonsnip in the last.
