Superset is the likely leader at a slick tempo. NATIONAL CODE (3) goes on top. She's knocking on the door with back-to-back runner-up finishes, good behind the unbeaten mare Tennessee Bound two back which is excellent form before flashing home at Bendigo. Finds the right race and can go one better. FIERCE DREAMS (4) settled well back then came home powerfully to score by one length over 1200m at Ballarat Synthetic last time out, her 2nd win in her past 3 starts. Drawn wide here but can prove hard to hold out. SISTINE TUNNEL (8) returned from a spell at Ballarat Synthetic and did enough in fourth. She should improve onto turf with her best form last campaign reading well. BONFIRE JIMMY (6) ran well fresh at Ballarat Synthetic and should come on nicely from that, respecting from the pole draw. SUGGESTED PLAY: National Code to win.
