RACE EIGHT
NEWPORT DREAMZ (3) pressed ahead to find the front from this gate over this trip 4 starts back and setting an even tempo was able to see it out. Buried away after retreating from gate 6 here 2 starts back, he was attacking the line hard to grab the bronze. From the front he can look to dictate.
HADLEY (1) is after 4 on the bounce after completing the hat-trick last start when taking them all the way over the mile in a new career benchmark. A big winner from the 2nd line at Redcliffe the start prior, he steps it up here but with a cosy trip on offer over the linger 2138m, can be ready to strike.
LUCKY UNLUCKY (6) started a well-supported fav last start from gate 6 in a 7 horse field, but never had much go his way and then broke in running. 2nd up here and with added fitness, look for a sharper effort.
TORI MAY (9) comes through the same race as LUCKY UNLUCKY and after settling back in the small field, was finding the line smartly in the closing stages. Finding cheap position, look for her swooping.
