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

Good pace from Midnight Scandal, Pericles and Sterling Express going forward. LITTLE BIT OF LOVE (5) looks thrown in here at 54.5kg. His two runs on the track have been not that bad. He has raced well for ages. One to beat. STERLING EXPRESS (4) he is live on a hattrick here. Is proven third up too. The 4yo looks really well in here up just half a kilo. DUSTY ROAD (3) he is well drawn in this. Cannot be left out here to place or be in the first four. BOURBON EMPRESS (6) ran quite well when resuming. Has won second up too. Course proven. Drawn to be a must include. GRANDE GALLO (7) drawn wide here but cannot be left out. He is a wet tracker and course proven. May well be paying overs. SUGGESTED PLAY: Little Bit Of Love is the weight special in this field. It is hard to deny Sterling Express from getting his hattrick.
