Expecting a strong gallop with Ginnivan and Sinful Living taking up the running over Golden Vale. ALL PLAY (3) ended last campaign in blistering fashion and his recent trial suggests he can pick up where he left off. The inside draw is a big tick and they've tinkered with his feet to get him right. Ticks plenty of boxes and looks ready to build on his picket fence. GINNIVAN (1) wasn't disgraced in the Rock Magic Stakes when beaten 2.2L behind Quokka hopefuls. Sticking to this trip looks ideal and he'll find this much easier. He has to carry the weight, but he's a classy galloper and he'll be tough to catch. BRAVE STRIKE (8) is on the quick turnaround following a 0.2L defeat last start at this track and trip. This is tougher, but Pike sticks and she'll be flashing late in the race. GOLDEN VALE (9) drops in trip today and ticks plenty of boxes down in the weights. TOROPA (7) is better than what she showed at the end of last campaign and can return in good order. SUGGESTED PLAY: All Play can keep the winning streak alive.
