2:20am - AUTUMN CARNIVAL ON SALE SPRINT | 1150m | | i

A small and competitive field here over 1150m. EASY EDDIE to roll forward (tempo: FAIR to STEADY) coming off a very strong win on SOFT ground at his home track last start. He's a big-striding type that can progress again here third-up and just needs to handle the firmer conditions OK to be hard to beat again. He's got a real challenge against INTUITION though, a powerful dry track sprinter that will give this a real shake after a nice return behind EASY EDDIE last start (wet didn't suit, blocked last 100m). MALAISE the other key chance, a very reliable type worth a close look at in the yard and market, his two trials were fine. [updated: 8:02am]
