Solid pace from Dark Avalanche pushing forward, along with Radiant Light from the wide draw. RAINLINE (1) stuck on well in a $100k race at this track and trip last start with the form coming out of that being very good. Back to a CL3 today and the claim of Nottle is a big tick. Looks a classy runner in this field and can get back to winning ways with firmer footing on offer. STREAK OF GOD (7) resumes today with a nice trial under his belt coming in. He showed some promise last campaign as he looked to get over a trip, with his first-up run being sound over this distance. Pike hops back on board today and he can return on a positive note. AWESOME FORCE (9) gets the blinkers on for the first time today after a sound performance at Bunbury last start. This looks to shape similarly and if he can bounce back to his best back on top of the ground, he'll go close. DARK AVALANCHE (5) can improve sharply jumping right out in trip today. ROMANTIC RULER (2) can't be left out with the aid of an inside barrier. SUGGESTED PLAY: Rainline gets the nod.
