Roweiner's Dance and Molongle Surprise possess good early speed. ROWEINER'S DANCE (2) is fast and has won 2/3 this preparation and just missed the other. Draws to advantage and gets in well again with the 2kg claim. Will get all the favours and can go on with the job. NORTHERN EXPRESS (3) brought decent metro form to the Listed Weetwood and was outgraded. Resumed here as favourite and looked a run short. Flies second up and with Butler up should go close. TURBEAU (6) found more like his best winning at Cairns. Draws low today and Wiggins sticks aboard. Come back to a shorter sprint freshened and can't be ruled out. LOUD NOISE (12) rates well enough on the Cairns win and tumbles in weight. LADY RAIN (10) resumes and would be in the frame at best. Goes on the fresh side but the outside gate makes it tough. SUGGESTED PLAY: Roweiner's Dance appeals.
