Gulf Of America from the Sean Tarry stable should give punters a good start to the day.
He produced an eye-catching debut effort over 1160m on the Standside course.
She took the lead at the 200m mark before getting caught late by Jingleberry.
She would have gained from the experience and should love the rise to 1450m.
Piere Strydom is booked to ride and with the natural improvement that is expected, she should be the one to beat.
Trainer Robbie Sage sends out Call Me Master in Race 6. He has finished fourth in his last two starts.
He stayed on at the finish over 1600m last time.
The 8yo gelding takes a drop in class and with luck in running, he can notch up his sixth-career victory.
