Even tempo with Divine Fire rolling forward with the absence of a genuine leader. GRINZINGER HALO (12) was way too bad to be true last time at headquarters when failing to finish off but had been ticking along nicely prior with sneaky runs home from awful positions. Middle draw suits. Watch for her bursting through. DIVINE FIRE (14) has been thereabouts in her two runs back and gets a good chance to break a long run of outs under the light weight. Will land on speed and be in this for a long way third-up. FALAISE (3) caught the eye second-up when flashing home into fourth after settling at the rear. Strips fitter on the quick back-up and gets 2kgs off again. Represents great value. LOMAX (7) will settle a mile back from his gate but if they overdo it in front he will be launching late. SUGGESTED PLAY: Giving Grinzinger Halo another chance.
