Even tempo expected with Canny Coni likely to be prominent. SUNSHINE TAFE (11) stepped up into Open 3YO company 19 days ago and wasn't disgraced, beaten 2.3L. She was good winning in similar company at Pinjarra two back and returning to this level looks ideal. Can bounce back to winning ways. SHOW THE WAY (5) just missed in a strong Open 2YO race last start and he's one that hasn't been in this level for a little while. He steps out in trip for just the second time, but this is an easier race. Looks well-placed and should put his best foot forward. LIEUTENANT DUNBAR (4) is on the quick turnaround today and the booking of CJP is a big tick. Can bounce back to form. GOLDEN DORE (1) has been good his past couple and still has plenty of upside. Can feature. SUGGESTED PLAY: Sunshine Tafe can win the last.
