Genuine tempo from Reebar leading Benedict Arnold. JE REVE (5) did a great job to score by a head over today's course and distance last start in a far better run. Nicely placed to play a pivotal role. STORM FORCE TEN (4) returns after a spell of 17 months. Looking to emulate his win at Ipswich when returning from a spell last prep. Sure to make his presence felt while fresh. LIGHTNING STRIKES (3) resumes. Didn't make an impact at his only run last prep on July 28, finishing sixth and beaten 6 lengths over 1200m at Toowoomba. Lining up today for the first time for trainer Jason Edwards and rates a definite top-three chance. REEBAR (14) gets 1.5kg weight relief with the claim and is usually thereabouts. Can earn another cheque. SUGGESTED PLAY: Je Reve to go back-to-back.
