SELECTIONS: FATE AWAITS (3), OUR SWEET DELIGHT (2), STORMS COLLIDE (8), CAPTAIN PERFECT (7)

OVERVIEW: The classy colt FATE AWAITS (3) finished second in fast time at Albion Park last week and is capable of going one better. He won the Rising Sun and was placed in the Queensland Derby during the Winter Carnival so he has the class to test this field. OUR SWEET DELIGHT (2) pushed forward to find the lead and was too strong in the run to the finish when he took out the Carousel Final at Menangle last outing. He is ideally drawn and should give another forward showing. STORMS COLLIDE (8) won three races in succession prior to a huge second behind It’s Confidential last week, where he endured a wide trip in a strong mile rate of 1.53.0. He will be giving his main rivals a big start from his awkward draw but he is racing too well to dismiss. CAPTAIN PERFECT (7) led throughout to easily win the Tasmanian Derby last outing. He is building up a good strike rate and is worth thought again.

EARLY SPEED: 2 (likely leader), 3,4,6,7

RATINGS: 2,3/ 7,8/ 6/ 4,5
