Another highly competitive race presents here, but the map favours ALACARI who has posted some rather impressive figures last season and in addition he has won before in a fresh state. With the right run, he can win and much the same can be said for BLOCKER DEE, who comes back in trip following two runs over longer distances. He will be much better suited over this shorter distance range and back to Class 3. The Quinella with these two makes some appeal. STARSHIP should be running on late, if the track is not playing “up and in” then he could unleash his powerful finishing burst to get into the finish given the tempo should be good. Much the same applies to STARLIGHT who has the added disadvantage though of a wide draw. However, I expect Blocker Dee and Alcari to be fighting this one out given their form and the speed map.
