|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Moderate tempo with Midnight Opal leading the way and a few others keeping in touch. HYPERBOLIC (4) resumes and rates as a string winning chance. Was beaten a nose at her latest appearance in the G3 Belle of the Turf Stakes at Gosford over 1600m. Maps for the run of the race and she'll be well-suited for this rich championship qualifier. STRAWBERRY IMPACT (9) resumes and had been busting to win as favourite in decent 72s over longer. Won his only start this course and distance and should be ready to go. Has an awkward gate and will need a touch of luck. MIDNIGHT OPAL (2) has been racing well including a second at Randwick two back. Can be around the mark. MORNINGTON PIER (5) showed improvement last start and should be peaking now. SUGGESTED PLAY: Hyperbolic appeals most.
