Pace on from the outset with Convincebility, Huesca and Khumbila pushing forward, closely attended by The Little Pumper. HUESCA (1) stepped up to Saturday company and did a good job to finish third last start over 1300m at Rosehill. All his wins have come on rain affected ground. Has his share of weight but he should roll along near the lead and prove tough to catch against this opposition. CONVINCEBILITY (2) led but folded up in the Provincial Championship Final last time out over 1400m at Randwick. Back in his right race today so expect him to turn things around. THE LITTLE PUMPER (3) is back after a six-month spell. Mixed it with better types last prep and wasn't disgraced. Unproven in heavy going but if he gets through it a big return is on the cards. COOL LAD (12) did his best work late but was never a threat first-up over 1200m at Gosford. Capable of sharp improvement. BULLY FOR YOU (10) loves it wet and is worth an each-way investment. SUGGESTED PLAY: Keen on Huesca.
