---|---|---|---|---|
Genuine pace with Rialtor taking up the running ahead of State Of Maine and Drink Then Kiss. NURYS (4) has returned in terrific order this campaign and is the form runner. Will appreciate the rise in trip at this point of the prep. Only needs to hold his form to be featuring prominently again. JILLADORA (7) never looked likely last start at Murray Bridge when always well back. Was much in her two runs prior and is a major player if she can recapture that form. Expect her to drift back from the draw and be the one taking the strongest strides late. PORTATION (6) is going better than his form reads and profiles strongly in this line-up on best figures. Can make his presence felt on the short turnaround. Smaller cases can also be made for MISO (2) and DRAGONFACE (14). SUGGESTED PLAY: Siding with Nurys.
