Head Of The Herd and Patrika Gold possess good early speed and will battle for early honours. UNDIVIDED (2) draws the carpark and is yet to see a wet track but showed potential aplenty last campaign. Trialling sharply of late and only needs an ounce of luck to challenge strongly. WOLVES (1) handles all conditions and past two results have been super genuine. Rises four kilos but clearly proven at this track and trip. LULUMON (9) is flying this time in and looks the type of wet track horse you'll need. In a much deeper race can still measure up. IMPULSIVITY (7) is holding her form strongly and was far from disgraced in city class last start. Handy filly back up in weight but with the talent to take this out. SUGGESTED PLAY: Undivided win.
