DARCY DAKOTA (1) is an honest type in the frame at 22 of 66 starts including 38 wins, the latest scoring (18.67) over 350m at this track. Has a strong winning record at this journey. Looks a key player drawing the cherry. SAPPHIRE KING (2) hit the frame two on end before being rewarded with a deserved win last time, scoring at this track over 350m (19.24). Safe beginner who has drawn to advantage. Likely to be in the finish. COUSIN HENRY (7) boasts a strong record this journey here with 13 wins and nine minors from 24 tries. Hit the frame latest (19.01) when third at this track in a Grade 2/3. Suited here and expected to run well. PIPER BEACH (8) missed the placings here last start but is well-placed to bounce back.

Should get a clear run from the wide draw. Wasn't impressive last start but does have a great record at this track and distance, should show more than the latest offering. Has claims.
