Race Tip

GIFTED GAMER (6) is going better than form suggests, last time finishing a 5.5 lengths seventh over 1m2f at Flemington. Should be poised just off the lead. Among the leading chances. SUPER DEFENSE (10) is close to breaking through after two consecutive placings, the latest coming when second over 1m at this track. Taking on a better line-up this time but he is good enough to play a major role. HE'S MAVERICK (7) scored last start at this track to make it two wins from two starts this campaign. Has the gate speed to take up a forward position. One of the main contenders. MASATORA (8) proved too strong two runs ago but couldn't follow that up last time out when seventh over 1m at this track, beaten 5.5 lengths. In contention this time.
