Race 1 No. 7 Canya Gulfstream
The best exposed form of this lot and resuming from a let up. Anything close to the Cannington runs that transfers to this will see him go close. 

A couple at odds here who could surprise. The 4 will push through early and if he gets a spot up front, that will see him hard to stop over this trip. The 6 probably plays for a fence run but she can stun and run home stoutly in good company. Both EW shows.

The 8 to accelerate out wide here and look for the arm. Low 22 will then see him very hard to catch. The 7 can also produce something similar and will appreciate the small field. They should square off here.

The 2 went under at very short quote last week but had no luck after a moderate getaway. Expect him to go better here off the good draw and go close. The 5 will descends late and that saw him score last time. Could be messy here at the first turn so he gets into it from there. Look for him late. 

The 6 is better drawn off and she can run a great race here if she steps her best. Goes well around here and copped too many checks last time. Don't ignore her. She's a real threat. The 3 will look to lead and he will be bowling along in front until they turn for home where the last bit could get him. He might have a break however and hit the frame if he can hold on. 

The 7 will muster up early and if he crosses these that should be it. Good effort last time winning over the 488 and will handle this trip as well. The 3 to improve here. He has a good turn of foot once balanced off the mat and will surprise here if he is close. Dont dismiss him. 

The 3 will be short but if he finds the arm he should justify the short quote with little fuss. The 5 will go fast early and while she has a flat spot, she is sticking on better late and could find herself threatening if the fav makes an error. Small save there EW. 

This map is capable of being messy for few here and the 8 could just sweep around and give them all too much to catch. He will keep coming regardless. The 5 goes fast and while this is a step in company, he is promising and could lead these and give a great sight again. 

The 6 gets me again here and while that's about the 8th time in a row, she has never disgraced herself. This is winnable and she will be a price. She doesn't have to lead and will be running home hard and may not be too far off then. The 4 is enigmatic at best. He is fresh however and he is also fast when he can lead. That's what you're betting on and he will be a price to find out at least.
