Peecee Pussycat is likely to take charge and set a decent tempo. KIWI MAGIC (9) finally got a run to suit him courtesy of a good Hayley Hassman ride, and he proved to be too good on the turf here 12 days ago when scoring by a neck. He has plenty of upside, and now that he has his confidence back, he can repeat the dose, especially with 3kg less to carry. AVORIAZ (10) is a tough staying mare who was a brave third on the turf here over 2600m nearly 3 weeks ago. She won't lack fitness, and she has won on this surface in the past. Each-way. MISS ENZED (6) finished fifth in the same race as the second pick, and her form over this distance earlier in the year was very good. She is expected to bounce straight back into the money here. CHAMPAGNE LINDA (5) has not won for some time, and she also has not run a bad race in that time. Stepping up to 2200m for the first time is the key, and she can figure in the finish again. PEECEE PUSSYCAT (1) has good form here over the trip, and he will try and force the pace at some time in the running. Don't risk him. SUGGESTED PLAY: Kiwi Magic to win.
