FAST PATSY B confimed the promise that she displayed when making a winning debut last month with a solid second-place finish next time out. Mexiuno is the main danger based on his run here last week, while Church On Sundays is next on the list.

PETE'S SLEW has a good strike-rate for a horse at this level, having won 12 of his 41 career starts, and the six-year-old is taken to make it back-to-back victories today. Bullseye should not be underestimated, while Last One Standing is the best of the rest.

CAPTAIN GAVEL had been off the track for a long time prior to his last couple of runs and he is entitled to take another step forward today. That said, Van Lingle Mungo will be tough to beat based on all known form, while Small Town Shuffle is also respected.

TRIBAL TABLE clearly needed the run on his debut and the three-year-old looks sure to improve for that run today. Afendi and Irish Jack can fight it out for the places.

JASON X L has been knocking hard on the door of late and his consistency gives him an edge over Snappy Jack, who has better form but is more inconsistent. Darcurts Hope is next on the list.

Muskogee and Wynn Direction both make plenty of appeal but the preference is for NATIVE JAYLO, who has shown promise in more competitive maidens than this.

This is not the strongest of races but the marginal preference is for ON FIRE, whose form prior to a poor run last time out is strong enough to suggest that he can win this event. Rox The Fox and The Gotham Year are others to note.

ROCKY'S RAINBOW is proven at a much higher level than this and he is taken to dominate this event. It is too soon to be writing off Ronnie's Girl, while Tale Of Papa Nick is the pick of the remainder.
