Turf Talk:
- Track was rated Heavy earlier in the week but should improve to a Soft 6 or 7 by race 1 with warm and drying conditions.
- The rail moves out to the 6m position.
- Slight advantage expected for runners settling forward of midfield. Lanes 5 to 8 may be the best ground in the straight.
- Celine Gaudray is in strong form with 19 winners from her last 100 rides at +20.4% POT. She rides Pakenham well at +32.3% POT and has 6 rides today.
Race 6 No.14 Spiral Dream
SPIRAL DREAM made a strong impression winning on debut at Moe in June after leading throughout. She was spelled immediately and resumes here for her second campaign. Draws inside and should be able to use her early speed again. The 3kg claim is useful and she can give a free running performance.
Race 8 No.4 Zourain
ZOURAIN was solid through the line when resuming over 1200m at Sale and should improve rising to 1400m. Extra fitness 2nd up helps. Scratchings have improved his draw, giving him a cleaner map and every chance.
