Looks to be plenty of pace with Meddlesome and I'm Super battling for the lead. SIRLEAF (7) turned things around quickly when she ploughed through the heavy conditions to get up in a tight finish over 1400m at this track. Sharp weight drop and good gate can offset this stronger contest. Go close. CHEVAL CHIC (2) winkers go on today and should handle the rise in trip. Kept finding with the 60kg for a close-up sixth over 1200m at this track. Leading contender. NAUGHTY NURSE (6) is well drawn for this after she drifted back from a sticky gate for a disappointing last over 1400m at Newcastle. Worth noting winning apprentice William Stanley goes aboard. Expected to bounce back quickly. SMART BUY (8) smart on her day and the good tempo suits despite drawing poorly. Anywhere near her best can see her sneak into the finish. SUGGESTED PLAY: Box Quinella 7,2,6,8.
