Solid tempo with several going forward headed by Drialle. DRIALLE (11) went fast early and gripped on late for a tenacious head victory over 1400m at Beaudesert with the 60.5kg. Looks well placed in this stronger contest with the big weight drop. Go close. NAILS AND PRIDE (13) failed to make it three wins in succession at latest when up in grade for a fading fifth over 1415m at this track. Comes back a level today and has a good record at this course and distance. LOVEWILLCOMELATER (9) returns from a 38-day let-up after scoring a surprise win in Highway company over 1400m at Randwick. Not as effective on the firmer surface, but racing too well to dismiss. DARK CHILL (14) deep into the campaign and brings a solid set of figures here. Up to the mile when found wanting late to run ninth at Eagle Farm in C3 class. Down in the weights and stays in the calculations. SUGGESTED PLAY: Box Quinella 11,13,9,14.
