A solid tempo anticipated with Wan Lost and Farfetched ahead of Rach and Hay Street. RACH (8) ten-start Maiden with her hoof on the till. Has shown a ton of grit in her two runs back and race fitness can see her get the job done tonight. No excuse from the inside gate. HAY STREET (4) raced with distinction in Group company last time in and comes out of a very strong rating race after resuming with a tough on-pace second to Journeyman over 1200m at Warwick Farm. Only has to hold that form to go close. EYNESBURY (2) key jockey change tonight and will relish the solid tempo from the good draw. Indicated a win was imminent with a fast finishing second over 1200m at Gosford. Near his top and sure to be thereabouts. FARFETCHED (9) speedy filly who can take control early from the wide barrier. Steps out to this trip for the first time after she gripped on late to secure third over 1100m at Warwick Farm. Stays in the mix. The chances don't end there. SUGGESTED PLAY: Rach and Hay Street can fight it out.
