Cracking tempo with Rainbow Beach and Paper Cowboy leading the way. FARNESINA (7) may have suffered from the dreaded second-up syndrome last time out but go on the solid win over this track and trip when resuming. Winning rider Fenlon stays in the saddle and should be right there at the business end. KELANOA (9) is one from one over this course and distance and will find this a touch easier than the recent placing in town. Shapes as a leading prospect. BABALOLA (16) resumes here but is yet to miss a drum in four fresh attempts and has revved up for this with two recent trials. Can run a race first-up. SILENT FOX (5) is drawn to get all the favours from the inside alley and is a must for the exotics players. CAPIANA (2) is a last-start winner who shouldn't be slept on. SUGGESTED PLAY: Boxed Trifecta 7,9,16,5.
