Overview:
Race 2 Backing No.1 Areaan & No.4 Lack of Restraint
Working around Sussex Duchess as a short-priced favourite here.
Areaan hit the line strongly first up at Pakenham in a race dominated by the on-speed gallopers. There was a bit of depth to that maiden and he has trialled well since. From gate one, he can be handier out in trip.
Lack Of Restraint has been her own worst enemy to date, wanting to lay in quite badly. She was help up much of the straight at Wodonga last time out but her work to, and through, the line was outstanding. Brittany Button is also in a good vein of form.
