Expecting Win To Retire to lead Skittish at just a moderate tempo. WIN TO RETIRE (7) ran over the top to win by 0.8L last start over the mile at Belmont and looks suited by the rise in trip. She's likely to get back again, but she's sure to be closing off strongly at the finish once again. TRIO (6) just missed over this course and distance two back before finishing 4.3L off a big winner at Pinjarra last time out. This is tougher than his latest efforts, but he's nicely drawn and he's in the right stable to make an impact. BE AWESOME (5) is better than he showed at Narrogin last start and Noske replaces the apprentice. Keep safe. HE'S ARCHIE (4) steps out to this trip for the first time and is not to be discounted on recent figures. SUGGESTED PLAY: Siding with Win To Retire.
