SOUTHERN DIAMOND (7) is in a purple patch of form having made it two wins on the trot at this circuit and distance when he got the cash by 2.6 metres last week. Tactics will be crucial from this wide draw but he is going well enough to land the hat trick. NELLIE JOY (10) continued a strong run of recent form last time out, scoring by 4.6 metres at this circuit and distance to give her two wins and two placings from her last four starts here. May need an ounce of luck from this tricky draw but if it comes her way she can keep the ball rolling. WHIRLWIND WILBUR (1) is a consistent performer who looks close to a win after finishing runner-up in his last three outings here. Gets his chance from the ace draw. PIZZA PRINCE (4) draws a few spots wider but can feature again after missing by a head as runner-up here last time out.
