All Well should push forward again today with For All We Know also on speed. A muddling tempo is on the cards here with no genuine pacemakers engaged. Consistent filly LILYMORN has placed 4/5 starts in her brief career and looks well placed to score. Wasn't suited dropping back to 1500m at Cranbourne last start but did her best work late to snatch 3rd place. Very fit now and looking for this sort of trip. FOR ALL WE KNOW is a promising stayer who turned in the best effort in his four-start career last start, racing close to the pace and sticking on well to be beaten under a length over 1733m at Geelong. Ready to go the next step. WILLING ACCOMPLICE took a sit last start and held on gamely to be beaten 1.3L by our second pick at Geelong. Meets him on the same weight terms which will make it tough. Nearing his peak now and getting out to this trip will enhance his chances. CHERON WARRIOR returned to form last start and rated well in the process so do not leave him out. SUGGESTED PLAY: Lillymorn straight out.
