Moderate pace with November Air taking up the running ahead of Euromaster and Lucky Bay. LINWOOD (3) will find this easier than what she's been racing in and looks poised to strike third-up with the blinkers on today. Needs some luck from the barrier, but she's an improving type who has struck a winnable race. THIS IS THE MOMENT (2) didn't jump last start and has since bolted in at the trials. They've tinkered with the gear to help him out and his form prior was solid. Can get back to winning ways. EUROMASTER (8) is better than he showed last start and can bounce back with the rise in trip suiting. NOVEMBER AIR (12) bumped into one last start at Goulburn when favourite and ticks a few boxes again today. Can play a role. SUGGESTED PLAY: Linwood on top.
