RACE EIGHT
The capacity field from the tapes always makes for a tricky contest but staying out of trouble at the pointy end can be a big plus for IGNITE (1). Safely away last start to find the front before releasing the speed, he had the spark in the stretch to cruise past in claiming a 5m victory. This profiles in similar style.
AVEROSS DON (13) will be giving away 40m to the front marker however that is not too big an impost considering he has been meeting stronger opponents in recent outings. Pressing on to the front from a 10m tape last start, he was unable to see it out over the longer trip and the return to the middle trip in this grade suits.
MAJESTIC SPEED (6) was off the 30m tape last start when sent forward early to take control of proceedings. Trying to fight them off, she had to settle for the bronze and will be in the mix again.
DREAMEE (12) is a 4YO stepping out for the first time this season, transferring to the Tayla Gillespie stable. A three-time winner, he has had a pair of local trials, the latest a tidy hit out and he will improve on whatever he can achieve here.
SELECTIONS: IGNITE (1), AVEROSS DON (13), MAJESTIC SPEED (6), DREAMEE (12)
SUGGESTED BET: IGNITE (1) to win
