---|---|---|---|---|
Cracking pace from Loud Enough and Loud Noise fending off pressure from a few pacey rivals. BOLD TYPE (3) is in fine form and was just lipped out the latest at Townsville in Open grade. Draws out but will go close with average luck. EL OF A SAGA (4) disappointed last time in a Townsville Open but the near-miss at Cairns prior stacks right up. She can race handier today and should go close. CUPID'S SON (6) has won three of his last five and was heavily-backed winning the Atherton Open the latest. She also has a wide barrier but gets in light with the 2kg claim. VERBALIZER (2) resumed with a solid effort off the CL6 win at Townsville. Has a cruel gate but has more up the sleeve and is in the mix. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Bold Type.
