They look to roll along early with Great Week and Newyork Missile leading the charge. FIRST DAY (2) huge class drop today, and she looks to have panels on these. Up sharply in grade and trip when a poor fifth to Dictionary over 2400m at Caulfield. Claim helps from the low draw and will take stopping. CRUSHEEN LASS (12) took advantage of the good draw when raced on the pace for a game second over 1618m at Echuca. Proven at the trip and gets map favours here. NEWYORK MISSILE (13) ready to run a strong 1800m after closing strongly with a solid second over 1500m at Albury. In peak condition for this and expect to see him race closer to the speed. Each way. BRIE BRIE (10) racing in career best form and worth more than a passing glance with the claim. Ploughed through the heavy going when a determined winner over the mile at Wagga. Tongue tie comes off and gets her chance under these conditions. SUGGESTED PLAY: First Day can return to winning form.
