OVERVIEW: LIKE A WILDFIRE (9) is resuming since a win over Curly James in the Melton City Council Sprint at Melton in November. He is a tough competitor and should be hard to beat despite being first up without a trial performance. SEW WHAT (10) possesses a powerful finishing burst and has been in great form including a victory in the Horsham Cup on March 11. She finished quickly from last to pick up fourth behind Rakero Rebel at Melton last outing and should run her usual honest race. TANGO TARA (8) finished off well for third in the Stampede when resuming then followed with a third behind Triple Eight in the Captain Sandy FFA. He is awkwardly drawn but should go well again. VANQUISH STRIDE (2) held his own over the concluding stages when third behind Catch A Wave in the Tiger Tara FFA on Saturday night. He is a place chance again from the good draw. The interesting runner is I CAST NO SHADOW (6), which makes his debut for trainer Isabel Walsh. He has been lightly raced recently but his last win was in the 2022 Inter Dominion Championship Final!

OVERVIEW: LIKE A WILDFIRE (9) is resuming since a win over Curly James in the Melton City Council Sprint at Melton in November. He is a tough competitor and should be hard to beat despite being first up without a trial performance. SEW WHAT (10) possesses a powerful finishing burst and has been in great form including a victory in the Horsham Cup on March 11. She finished quickly from last to pick up fourth behind Rakero Rebel at Melton last outing and should run her usual honest race. TANGO TARA (8) finished off well for third in the Stampede when resuming then followed with a third behind Triple Eight in the Captain Sandy FFA. He is awkwardly drawn but should go well again. VANQUISH STRIDE (2) held his own over the concluding stages when third behind Catch A Wave in the Tiger Tara FFA on Saturday night. He is a place chance again from the good draw. The interesting runner is I CAST NO SHADOW (6), which makes his debut for trainer Isabel Walsh. He has been lightly raced recently but his last win was in the 2022 Inter Dominion Championship Final!
