Although coming from wide gates Tsunami and Magic Sunny Day have enough early speed to cross and lead. Open race to close out the card. HOT COCOA (12) is an honest commodity who has hit the top-five in all five outings the preparation and does boast a win around this circuit. Looks the runner in this field with the most upside and should be right there at the business end. BETTER BREAKOUT (2) may have suffered from the dreaded second-up syndrome last time out but the form prior was full of merit. Worth another chance. TSUNAMI (4) is a course and distance winner who gets some weight relief with the 2kg claim. Sure to give backers a sight up on speed. FANCY GARTER (6) doesn't win out of turn but is never too far away and may trouble the judge with any luck in running. GO COMMANDO (3) next best despite the sticky draw. SUGGESTED PLAY: Siding with Hot Cocoa.
