More From The Tote With Ladbrokes 3yo Up To 3 Wins Pace

Prize Money: $4,000

DARK AND HANDSOME (4) resumes after finishing seventh at his latest appearance at Redcliffe on July 31. This should be an easier assignment so he is sure to prove tough to beat. HYPNOTIZE ME (5) finished tenth last start over 2040m at Redcliffe, beaten 25 metres, after a good third at Redcliffe the run prior. Has the class to take care of this field. DOUG STEWART (2) disappointed last time when ninth over 1780m at Redcliffe. Can atone. LACEYS LASS (6) is worth another chance after a last-start 11th over 2138m at Albion Park six-and-a-half weeks ago.
