---|---|---|---|---|
Heaps Of Moolah and Arnray can set an even tempo. ELEGANT INDI (9) stormed home in slick splits to score at Northam as favourite, getting the job done by 1.1L. Back to the 2000m journey today but that doesn't look an issue and Pike remains in the irons. Showed plenty of class last start and with more upside to come, she can go bring up back-to-back wins. STARWALKER (7) steps up to this trip for the second time in his career and was a winner at his only attempt over this trip. He was just too far back to threaten last start at Northam as favourite, but the form out of that race has already been franked. Can get back to winning ways. BEEJAY BOY (4) finished 2.8L off the winner at Northam when behind Starwalker last time out, but is a course and distance winner earlier this preparation. Cooper's claim comes in handy at he's right in the mix on recent performances. CHANTEL (5) is knocking on the door in recent efforts and should be thereabouts once again. SUGGESTED PLAY: Elegant Indi can go on with the job.
