Only a small field with Cha Cha Cha likely to find a comfortable lead. KEEP AT 'EM (4) has turned in a couple of eye-catchers this prep, the latest over 1400m at Newcastle where he came from last to get up for third. Registered the peak rating last time in work when he got to the mile. This looks a perfect third-up assignment. BRAZIL (2) shouldered 61kgs but was still too good last time out in a BM58 over today's journey at Albury. Tackles a better race today but drops 5kgs after Grima's claim. Good enough to be competitive in this line-up. The lightly raced COULTER (1) dug deep late to win his maiden recently over 1400m at Kembla. Going straight to a BM64 is a big ask but there is plenty of scope for improvement, particularly over the extra trip. CHILLY CHARLIE (3) hasn't won for a while but continues to race well. Game in defeat at Hawkesbury last start and he should be at his peak at the third run of the campaign. SUGGESTED PLAY: Keep At 'Em looks a nice bet to start the day.
