Strong tempo from Dreamdeel, Etched In Time and Broadway Follies. Dreamdeel, Etched In Time and Broadway Follies can set a strong tempo. THREATENING (8) is racing well in genuine company of late and excels at both track and trip. Hard fit and hard to beat. LAUREL HILL (6) is a genuine mare with solid form lines from her latest run. With a kinder draw and a cute claim gets the big ticks. LAST COMMAND (2) has a sticky draw resuming but tackled sharp races last campaign. Previous first-up winner who can give this a real shake. BROADWAY FOLLIES (9) made a positive return first up but will have to work away from a wide draw early doors. In the mix. SUGGESTED PLAY: Threatening win. Box quinella 8,6,2,9.
