Strong tempo expected with Onepointsevengone, Launch Sequence and Aye Aye Skipper prominent. AYE AYE SKIPPER (5) did not see out 1420m at Grafton as favourite last start and is much better placed over this shorter trip. He will have options from a good draw and can bounce straight back into the money. LAUNCH SEQUENCE (6) was a well-deserved maiden winner here in early January and looked close to that sort of form when finishing third at Coffs Harbour 9 days ago. A wide draw won't help him, but if the gaps come at the right time, he can figure in the finish again. Include. GOLDEN DUBAI (7) is heading the right way with is form and should have no issues with his fitness third up. A wet track won't be a problem, and he should be hard to hold out. ONEPOINTSEVENGONE (16) fought on well enough at Tuncurry last time out when finishing runner-up. Include in all combinations again. TELEGRAPH (4) resumes from a spell with Aaron Bullock in the saddle. Include in all combinations to be safe. SUGGESTED PLAY: Launch Sequence each way.
