solo flyer suited..could be hard to run down..likewise marveen..pravana rattling last bit..rampant lion can do it either end..

Yep a tough race ,,alot of these havent really targeted this race which makes it even harder ,,,,Scenic Shot has atleast had this race in mind ,,,i dont know how to rate Voloce Bela and the Perth visitor Markus Maximus ,,,
and if Sir Slick makes it a stayers test then Duoro Valley will love the grind..

The Quaddie today will pay nicely i'm guessing..

What the heck, put me down for Racing to Win.
