Without a desigated pacemaker it will probably turn into a dash home. ASHFALL (1) was quickly back in the winners' stall, winning a 68 heavily bet over a mile. He won his only start over a middle distance and benefits from Bingley's 3kg claim. He can go on with it. MONTEZULU (4) found a Quality a bit much over a staying trip, but rates well on the 1L defeat this track/trip prior. He gets in light with a 3kg claimer booked, and is a winning chance. Ditto GOLDEN PROPHET (3) who tacked this distance second-up, beaten a half length in a 60. That stacks up, and he also gets in well with a 3kg claim. ES AND ES (2) improved again, winning a 64 on the synthetic over 1880m. He races forward and is in the mix. SUGGESTED PLAY: Ashfall appeals most.
