Solid tempo with Tarps going forward from the good draw. LION CLASS (8) resumed at Doomben and wasn't beaten far from the pace. He's improved and may take a sit today. Strips fitter and should go close. WAR DRAMA (3) is a former Victorian resuming for Declan Maher and has switched from his brother's yard. He'd have these covered at best and has trialled well at Beaudesert. Needs a good ride, but no surprise to see him presented forward. ZOUTHUR (10) led and won a CL2 here and is on a quick backup. He's sure to give a sight. WATER LAD (9) led and missed a whisker at Parkes in Open grade. Lang has to manage an outside barrier, but he's on the improve and can't be taken lightly. CABSAV (5) has a 2kg claim and will be fitted again. Maps well and will be around the mark. SUGGESTED PLAY: Leaning to Lion Class.
