5:10am - ATC WINTER STAKES | 1400m | Listed | i

The feature race of the day and it isn't easy to pick. Tempo from BURNING PASSION, OXFORD POET and perhaps CLASSIC UNIFORM should make sure it's FAIR, but a few of these will be hoping for a strong speed up-front. GOLD SYMPHONY is one of those after an impressive win here on SOFT going. He'll be hard to beat if the tempo is honest, along with CENTRE PIVOT, MAN OF HIS WORD and SLIGHTLY SWEET from the back. If it's only FAIR to STEADY up-front, BURNING PASSION is the one, with threats from EXTENSIBLE on his back and SHIRAZ (sprints, peaks). SNIPPETS LAND an each-way chance in either case. Tricky! CENTRE PIVOT Blinkers AGAIN. [updated 8:42am]
