Strong pace from Summoned Lou kicking up with Forrest Gump close by. FORREST GUMP (1) looks a natural runner who showed good pace when resuming last time out and boxed on to finish a head from the winner in third at Wangaratta over 1300m. Better for that and while he does have a potentially-tricky wide draw to overcome, he looks well-placed to get the chocolates. YOU SAID WHAT (14) was below her best last time out when 10 lengths from the winner in tenth over 1412m at Echuca. That was in contrast to the two earlier runs this preparation, so she needs to be forgiven that, especially from a favourable draw here. NEDHAMMER HEN (5) was 5 lengths from the winner in fifth over 1400m at Sale last time following a minor placing on debut the run before. Well placed and gets his chance to break through. NARILAO (4) has a nightmare gate to overcome, but arrives off a couple of trial wins (albeit ridden out) and won't need to be a superstar to feature. SUMMONED LOU (8) has to be respected on the run two back, which was at this track. SUGGESTED PLAY: Forrest Gump.
