Desert Whisper and Do I Feel Lucky possess good early speed. DO I FEEL LUCKY (10) led them up but was collared late in a strong race 21 days ago with that form working out since. The blinkers go on now and he has the speed to roll across from out wide. Opts to run here rather than the Placid Ark Prelude where he wouldn't be out of place. Can go a couple better now. BLACK ORA (7) made it back-to-back wins last start over this track and trip, storming over the top to win rather comfortably. Drawn better this time which could see her sit closer as she has done in previous efforts. In form and hard to go past. TOROPA (2) is here without a trial which is a niggle. She's unbeaten first-up however and Brad Parnham hops in the saddle now. Can put her best foot forward on resumption. HANCHI (1) scratched last week to line up here. Looks better suited back to this trip and can return to his best form. ATLANTIC SPIRIT (9) creates interest coming to WA from Victoria. Good trial recently and is not to be discounted. SUGGESTED PLAY: Do I Feel Lucky goes on top.
