Genuine pace headed by I'm Kenny from his wide draw. CHARTIN (17) was denied by the barest of margins when resuming here two weeks ago. Strips fitter and will appreciate stepping to the mile second-up. Can go one better. MORLAIX (9) doesn't win out of turn but is ticking along nicely and won't have to improve much here to get the verdict. Reunites with Milnes, who will have to be at the top of her game from the wide draw. LOCA BELLA (12) is knocking on the door and gets another good chance to break through on the short turnaround. The mile looks her sweet spot and Holder sticking is a positive. MR TRAFFICANTI (2) was a barnstorming winner at Gawler two back when putting 3 lengths to Loca Bella. Had excuses last start when finishing midfield, pulling up lame. Will get back from the draw and can cause plenty of grief late if they overdo it in front. SUGGESTED PLAY: Siding with Chartin.
