A strong gallop is likely with Phanta and Puli taking up the running, closely attended by Fast Flicker and Fluro Neuro. FAST FLICKER (7) resumes today and was very solid at the end of last campaign, though she hasn't trialled coming in which is the niggle. If she's up to the mark first-up - which she can be - then she's right in the mix. FLURO NEURO (8) trialled nicely coming into this and has claims down in the weights. GEMMA'S SON (5) wasn't beaten far in the Bolton and has won twice when third-up. Include from a good gate. STORMCHASER (12) turned in a moderate performance at his last-start when fourth to Luvnwar over 1200m. Look for an improved run. PULI (6) is looking to improve on his last-start third in the H.G. Bolton Sprint over 1200m at Bunbury three weeks ago. In the mix. SUGGESTED PLAY: Fast Flicker can win fresh.

Too good last start and can repeat the dose. |
