Plenty of speed from Simply Mac and Canny Miss. ALAA PLENTY (1) stalked the leading division but couldn't quicken when resuming in a better race over this distance at Morphettville last start. Has never won first-up so no alarm bells. Has scored twice from four second-up runs so in this company a far better run is anticipated. BLANC VISAGE (7) is back after an 18-week spell. Performed well in some strong form races of a higher level than this last prep. Won a recent jump-out so a bright return looks on the cards. HEART OF THE MED (10) returned from a 19-week spell and was facing the starter for only the third time when a convincing all-the-way winner over 1000m here recently. Up in class this time but there is still plenty of room for improvement. CATTLE CAMP (4) started at $2.30 but was very plain first-up over 1200m at Mornington. Lightly raced four-year-old who can bounce back immediately with the blinkers going on. ALOHA BLUE (14) is up in grade but his stats at this trip are tough to overlook. SUGGESTED PLAY: Alaa Plenty to win with a saver on Blanc Visage.
