Race Tip

GOLDEN STRAAND (2) settled towards the tail when resuming last start then wound up strongly to score by 1. 4 lengths over 5½f at Warwick Farm. Should be in the finish again. HEZDARNHOTTOO (6) wasn't disgraced in city class last time when finishing fifth at Warwick Farm. Will appreciate a drop in grade. Well placed so expecting a strong run. CREPE MYRTLE (5) was in contention on the turn and finished third last time over 5½f at Warwick Farm when resuming from a lay-off, beaten 1. 5 lengths. Must raise the bar but this looks well within her grasp. Set Weights EETHEARTED (3) has put together back-to-back placings, the latest when 1. 4 lengths away in second over 5½f at Warwick Farm. Well placed and will be thereabouts again.
