Expert Analysis

First look at 1400m for PRAIRIE FLOWER (2) and suspect it is exactly what she wants. Showed talent last prep and looks a better horse now based on the good closing splits here first up at 1200m. Through the same race MAGNASPIN (4) can be considered with this a far better scenario for him. Was outpaced back at 1200m but has been far better over longer and should be around the mark in this. HENNESSY LAD (1) will be on speed. Winner on btoh sides of a break and has more to offer. PAPILLON CLUB (9) also fronts up off a win first up from a spell. Did that by a space and well worth a shot in tougher now.
