|---|---|---|---|---|

Small field in which Zougo Boss can find the front comfortably at a moderate tempo. FULMEN FILOU (1) registered his ninth minor placing recently when a distant third over 2100m at Tamworth. Very fit and better placed coming back in trip. ZOUGO BOSS (2) finally opened his account in a Class 1 at Inverell last start. Tougher this time but cannot be ruled out. ZOU DE LAGOS (4) hasn't been far away of late so can be competitive. SUGGESTED PLAY: Pierro's Girl can open her account here.
