|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Solid tempo set by Blue Moon Summit and Avid General. TESORO MIO (1) has been freshened with 47 days after winning over 900m at Corowa. Shouldn't lack fitness after a recent Bendigo trial placing and has found a good race to carry on her merry way. BOA VISTA (18) can be forgiven for not exactly meeting market expectations fresh at Geelong when resuming off 340 days. Is sure to have come on from that and is perfectly placed to get off the mark this time. JUKEBOX FLYER (7) returns from a long layoff but looks to have come in good order, assessing the lead-up hitout. Worth noting she filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last time in work over this trip at Gundagai. Has switched to the Keith Dryden & Libby Snowden yard and can make a bright start. MELODEE ROSE (12) is knocking on the door and has shown a good turn of foot on her day but will need some luck from the wide alley. SUGGESTED PLAY: Siding with Tesoro Mio.
