A solid tempo on the cards with Treasureflight leading the way. KAWA (8) could only manage fifth when resuming two runs back then improved last start when she found a couple better over 1400m at Horsham but was only beaten 0.6 lengths. With those two runs under her belt and on the home deck she can turn in a career peak. POSITIVO (3) bounced back last start and scored by 2.25 lengths as public elect over 1600m at Echuca, which was just another good showing in a consistent run of form. He's racing too well to leave out. TREASUREFLIGHT (4) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1400m at this track, beaten 7 lengths, but strips fitter and has the talent to win this with the right run from the tricky wide draw. ALOYSIUS (1) returned from a spell when he was beaten 3.5 lengths into fifth over 1200m at this track at his first run for the new stable. Fitter for that and up 300m, which looks a nice equation. GARFIELD (7) is on the back-up after a nice return at Kyneton and can improve again. SUGGESTED PLAY: Kawa each-way
