Solid tempo with Chevallum leading from Enforceable and Rimbaud. RIMBAUD (2) has been plying his trade in harder Sydney races and will find this assignment much more to his liking. Saves his best form for this distance range and gets some weight off from a middle draw. Plenty to like about his prospects. ENFORCEABLE (1) is a consistent conveyance who has only missed a place once in 13 career starts and doesn't know how to run a bad race. Should prove tough to hold out. NAVY NINA (10) returned in fine fashion with a solid Sunny Coast win and winning jockey Thompson sticks. Top-three commodity with a repeat of that performance. HURRICANE LU (8) has a win and a placing from two attempts over this trip and will be rock-hard fit for this. In the mix. CHEVALLUM (6) rounds out the selections in a cracking race to close out the card. SUGGESTED PLAY: Siding with Rimbaud.
