Solid tempo with Love 'N' Games leading from Vermilion Kirin and Maurita. MAZIS (9) didn't fire in Group 3 company last time out but go on the strong maiden victory at the Sunny Coast two back. Has placed around this circuit and gets the services of Maloney on board from the favourable draw. Can bounce right back. CONVO (11) shed the maiden tag at the latest effort and will have taken some confidence from that breakthrough win. Winning rider Wilson-Taylor sticks in the saddle and looms as the main danger. CAPTAIN GOOD VIBES (5) has placed over this distance range, draws the inside alley and gets in well at the weights with the 3kg claim. Ticks a few boxes. VERMILION KIRIN (4) is one from one over this track and trip and looks one for the exotics players. SUGGESTED PLAY: Boxed Trifecta 9,11,5,4.
