The Wolf has good early speed and can set a decent tempo. The Matt Dunn yard holds the aces. TRIBECA STAR (3) brings a 1L defeat in a Doomben Open charging home from the back. He's placed 3/3 second up and has more up the sleeve. He may sit closer today and the longer sprint will suit. Winning rider McGuren is reunited. FUKUBANA (6) brings a comfortable win from Doomben at CL2 level and this time last year he was only beaten 3.3L in the Group 2 Hobartville Stakes at Rosehill. He will be fitter again and tumbles in weight. Sure to feature. LUBRICATION (7) resumes in a CL4 at Doomben and impressed narrowly beaten off a wide gate. Flies second-up and has each way claims. VOLCANIC LOVE (4) is racing well but has to find more to be winning. SUGGESTED PLAY: Tribeca Star is a good contest.
