The Hound Says:Beat a good one in a slashing 29.68 at Nowra two runs back and she was placed in quick time here in April. Very well graded, should find the top mid race, yes.
The Hound Says:Recently broke the track record at Richmond over 722m and she appears to be a serious staying prospect. Should get the gun run behind the red, yes
FASCINATE TRUMP (8) isn't the most gifted chaser in the race but he is armed with terrific early speed and he should be able to break up the field as they head through the first bend. FERNANDO ROCKER (4) is a sparingly raced chaser but he is a huge talent when fit and he just needs luck early on. RITZA SMOKE (6) is another who needs room early.
AU CONTRAIRE (5) has been luckless since winning the Ultra Sense final and she is expected to make amends tonight. There isn't a stack of pace underneath, so she will find the rail without much trouble. EL CHORRO (7) got left in front last week and was a top winner, however he is likely to run second or third tonight. FORNER'S STORM (8) has claims
FEAR THE DRAGON (8) is still working it out, however he has turned in some big performances here in recent times and he is armed with a breath-taking turn of foot. LEG SPEED (4) is pure power and he was brilliant when placed here two runs back, while COPIOUS (3) loves racing here and he could be the value runner.
FASCINATE MEL (2) has been racing well in stronger company of late and she has a great record here. She should clear the red early and they will have to break 30 to reel her in. CUMBRIA KID (4) is a prolific winner and he will be charging at the business end of proceedings. ENERGIZER MISS (7) relies on luck but she has the motor.
CHECK THE RADAR (2) recently broke the 722m track record at Richmond and she will find this easier than her past two runs. The red has early speed and she will get a nice run through. RADICAL TOM (4) was a gutsy 42.23 winner here last week and he will be even better for the run, while SKINNY JUAN (8) is showing plenty of potential.
BROOKLYN BRUTE (3) is a serious up and comer and he can atone for his two luckless runs here. He can miss the kick, however he should get a nice run through at the bend. ZIPPING CLAMPETT (6) is still learning the caper but he has some impressive Richmond wins to his credit, while SAINT RICO (7) should be in the firing line for most of the journey.
BE WOWED (6) was a beaten favourite here last week but he did miss the kick and he had to work hard for the lead. Expected to step better tonight and he will prove hard to reel in. SANTINO KADE (8) has been lighting up the clock at Richmond and Bulli and he will just need some luck through the bend, while ZIPPING KIMBLE (2) has the motor.
WILD SYLVIA (2) is showing plenty of promise and she was far from disgraced here last time. She should assume control soon after box rise, hard to reel in. CLASSY SHAKIRA (5) is easily the most talented chaser in the event but she will need an ounce of luck in the first 50m or so. SCURRYFUNGE (7) is capable of causing an upset.
QUEEN LINDA (3) beat a good one when carving out a slick 29.68 at Nowra two runs back and she did bust the 30 seconds barrier when placed here in April. MRS. DIMAGGIO (7) is having her first look here but she has been consistent to date and she will be strong in the run home. SUNSHINE LILY (1) is never too far away in this company.
SUPERSTAR ETHICS (4) relies heavily on luck in his races, however he is possibly the fastest chaser on the planet when given clear running. Should find the rail early, will get every chance tonight. STOP IT (3) is the ultimate professional and he is expected to set a cracking pace, while the powerful BLACK TSUNAMI (8) will be charging late.
