OVERVIEW: SMOKEN ACE (5) broke the track record at Geelong two starts back and then ran a brave second to Calexico last time out. He’s got good gate speed and might bully his way to the front, so is very hard to beat. LOUIE LOU I (4) hasn’t won since January last year, but looks to have found an opportunity to use his good gate speed to try to lead all the way over the sprint trip. He usually takes some time to work into his preparations and his last couple of runs have been full of merit. RAKAJED (6) is as tough as they come and could certainly sit parked to win without surprising, while ISTHISJUSTFANTASY (7) has a good turn of foot and will be storming home late.

OVERVIEW: SMOKEN ACE (5) broke the track record at Geelong two starts back and then ran a brave second to Calexico last time out. He’s got good gate speed and might bully his way to the front, so is very hard to beat. LOUIE LOU I (4) hasn’t won since January last year, but looks to have found an opportunity to use his good gate speed to try to lead all the way over the sprint trip. He usually takes some time to work into his preparations and his last couple of runs have been full of merit. RAKAJED (6) is as tough as they come and could certainly sit parked to win without surprising, while ISTHISJUSTFANTASY (7) has a good turn of foot and will be storming home late.
