Guerrera to set a strong early tempo joined by Spiethtacular pushing on from an outside draw. Tricky. MISS SHU (5) resumes for a sharp local barn and has impressed at the trials. Races well here and has won over the distance. A bold return is likely. PRIVATE TENDER (2) is another local on resumption. Rates well and is proven first-up. Has trialled twice and will use the inside barrier. SPIETHTACULAR (9) led and belted the Maidens here by 3.5L. She was heavily bet again, and will keep improving. Has to skip across from a cruel barrier and that;s the niggle. GUERRERA (10) has been knocking on the door and is in the mix. SUGGESTED PLAY: Miss Shu if the betting suggests stable confidence.
