Strong tempo assured from Prideofthebigfish and Vancouver Bay leading the charge.
The lightly-raced OUR IMPACT (3) has hit the top-four in all four career outings to date including boasting a win around this circuit when last in work. Looks the runner in this field with the most upside and rates among the leading chances. VEGAMEISTER (11) saves his best form for his home circuit here and will be rock-hard fit for this. Looks well placed so expect a strong performance. SPRING'S GIFT (10) finally broke the maiden status last time out and will have derived a stack of confidence from that victory. Can go right on with the job now. BUBBLES'N'FROTH (4) has placed over this track and trip and is better than the recent effort suggests. Worth another chance. PURPOSE 'N' VISION (9) next best despite the awkward draw. SUGGESTED PLAY: Leaning towards Our Impact.
