Novalargo is the probable leader in the small field. Most have a hope. IT'S JAGGER TIME (2) stuck on well when resuming to finish second over 1200m at this track after showing good early speed. Flies second-up and the longer sprint suits. Improver with strong prospects. NATIVE CLAN (5) drifted back last start before storming home to score by 1.3 lengths over 1430m at Hobart. Peaks today and will be tough to hold out again. AZONTO (3) is racing well and is close to a win. Was a solid third at this track over 1400m last time, and her best figures measure up. NOVALARGO (4) progressed nicely last time out to finish just one length from the winner over 1200m at this track. The speedy mare led in that and is on a quick backup. Has her share of talent and also has claims. SUGGESTED PLAY: Leaning to It's Jagger Time.
