|---|---|---|---|---|

Slick tempo assured with Convincebility leading the charge. BOOM SHOT (3) grows a leg for hoop Orman who has two wins and four placings from just six steers and will strip fitter third-up from the break. Has only missed the top four once in eight career starts and is one from one over this course and distance. Looks very hard to toss. CONVINCEBILITY (2) will have come on now with that first-up run now in the locker and gets some weight off with the 1.5kg claim. In the mix. AITUTAKI (15) has placed over this track and trip and may trouble the judge with any luck in running. SKYWRITER (10) is next best from the Waller stable. SUGGESTED PLAY: Boom Shot to win.
