Pace looks strong with Metalart pushing forward from an outside draw. RADIANT REMI (6) may be the best of the three acceptors from the Gollan yard. She has won 4/11 and was quickly back to form winning an Ipswich 65 on a heavy track. The gate should advantage and she performs second-up. The 3kg claim brings her right into it. Stablemate GREAT ASPIRATIONS (7) had too much to do last time and assess him on the comfortable Ipswich win prior. Keeps Maloney and can feature if the rail isn't off. METALART (9) seeks the hat-trick following a freshen and is sure to have plenty of admirers. Has the early speed to skip across from the sticky gate and is sure to give a sight. AMATHUBA (10) was well in the market but never a threat in a Doomben 70. Missed a nose here this grade prior as a $3.5 favourite and will appreciate her return to the more spacious track. The top hoop sticks aboard. SELOUS (8) maps well and is still shy of his peaks. Another with claims. SUGGESTED PLAY: Leaning to Radiant Remi each way.
