Speed assured from Fine Gift, O K Smile and Smile Forest pressing on ahead of Noble Needle. PREMIUM KIND (9) missed the frame two back in tougher company then last time in a more suitable affair scored by 2 lengths over 1400m at this track. Can continue the winning form. SMILE FOREST (5) produced a good effort when narrowly defeated last time at this track over 1400m. Should be in the finish again. NOBLE NEEDLE (3) started at $1.70 last time but could only manage sixth at this track over 1400m. Form at this track is solid. One of the contenders. O K SMILE (7) was out of the placings in tougher company two back then found the frame when second at this track latest after setting the tempo throughout. Better run latest and looks well placed again. Is a winning chance on best form.
