Genuine pace with Thrilling Venture finding the front but it won't be a picnic with a few other speedy types engaged. EXPIDO (4) is a promising gelding resuming for the Davies yard. Was a dominant winner when first-up last campaign and looks raring to go off a sharp Gosford trial placing. Clearly the one to beat. THRILLING VENTURE (7) couldn't make it three on the bounce to kick off the prep last time but did give another bold sight in front for her supporters. Sure to do the same again. KANTISHNA (3) stuck his neck out to earn a well-deserved win last time at Tamworth. Tougher this time but has found winning form and can keep the ball rolling from the good draw. Should be competitive. INAZUMA BOY (1) returns and makes his stable debut for the Northam camp. May need the run coming off a 326-day break but is a noted fresh performer and worth keeping safe. SUGGESTED PLAY: Expido looks hard to beat.
