Aces Up and Botanica possess good early speed and will set a genuine tempo. WILDSPITZE (10) finished eighth when resuming two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 1300m at Rockhampton, beaten only a nose after being prominent at the bend. Finds a suitable race and can figure in the finish. ODIN'S MOUNT (9) came from well back on the corner to score last time out over 1500m at Warwick. Should be winding up late again. KELANOA (11) settled well back last time out then found the line strongly to finish 4 lengths away in fourth over 1350m at Ipswich. Solid top-three prospects. ACES UP (3) bounced back last start and scored by a nose after being in contention on the turn over 1500m at Jandowae. Finds a tougher race but this looks well within his grasp. SUGGESTED PLAY: Boxed Quinella 10,9,11.
