|
Expecting Valiant Bomb to take up the lead at a genuine tempo. SQUEEZEBOX (6) warmed to the task nicely late first up and a middle distance assignment suits. Has the right form lines to run well. LAST COMMAND (2) streaked home first up into minor money and should lap up the extra trip. Despite a sticky draw can pay to follow. MISS SPACEGIRL (13) is on trial at this trip but peaking third up. Has the talent to play a big role. ZIPITALIST (8) is now back to near career best form but does cop a stench draw. Will be running on late. HYPERBOLIC (10) gets the blinkers and a senior rider on. Latest run puts her in the mix. SUGGESTED PLAY: Squeezebox each way.
