Lim's Bighorn and Eugenius possess good early speed. EUGENIUS (4) resumes. He was racing well last time in against some better company, and his 1200m record is strong. Should land in a good spot from the draw and go close from there. LAYERUPONLAYER (3) struggled fresh at Bendigo in a good race behind Stylish. He's a sparingly raced 6yo who can turn things around quickly. TOOMPINE (7) is going well of late, winning two back at Geelong before working home well to just miss at Ballarat on the turf last time. He's unproven at 1200m but is going well enough to figure. STRIKE GOLD (2) is a former Singaporean horse who was a narrow winner at short odds over this route last time out. Can go right on with it now. SUGGESTED PLAY: Eugenius on top.
