Just a modest pace in store without noted speed runners engaged. DASHING RUPERT (1) has been well placed to win three of four to date. Up in trip and class but ideally drawn. Should go close. ONE LAST SHOT (4) is a first-up flyer. Sketchy draw is a worry but has the talent to figure. HYPERBOLIC (8) finds a more suitable trip second up on home patch. Look for a sharper result. ISTOLEA MERC (3) lightly raced gelding who missed a hat-trick when eighth last start over 1300m at Warwick Farm. Can bounce right back. SUGGESTED PLAY: Dashing Rupert win.
