Super Joy N Fun appears the likely leader at a goods tempo. GOLDEN RISE (8) is racing well and almost made it back-to-back wins over this course and distance last start. He rises up 1kg from last start, though he was favourite last start and he possesses some early speed. Sticky draw but he's hard to knock on recent form. SUPER JOY N FUN (4) is another who has some early speed and can cross from the sticky barrier. He boasts a good record at this track and trip and he beat home Golden Rise last time out. Ticking along well and should be going close if he can run up to recent efforts. YOUNG ARROW (12) rattled home from the back last time out to miss out by 1.5L, bouncing back from a disappointing effort two back. He's right down in the weights now and the wide draw isn't an issue with his racing style. Watch for him late in the race. SUGAR SUGAR (1) can burn across from the outside barrier and give a bold sight from the front.
