Some Sort and Leading Taddy should set a strong gallop. TAWKIN' JIBBERISH (1) looks one of the main pace influences in the race and that's a big key to her chances. Gunned down late here last start after bolting in two back. Can find the front with Zac Lloyd in the saddle and prove too good this time. WICKED VENOM (3) boasts a strong fresh record and was great in his only trial coming into this. He sat on the speed in that outing, but most of his racing has been done from midfield or worse. Needs some luck from the draw but he looks on song. ON THE FULL (7) stuck on well behind a progressive type here last week when sitting on the pace a good odds. Can roll forward again and give a bold sight. INSYDE SUCCESS (5) didn't come up last campaign, but both runs were on wet tracks. Back on top of the ground now and can improve. CRYPTIC JOY (8) comes through a handy form race last start and should get his chance under CJP today. SUGGESTED PLAY: Tawkin' Jibberish can bounce back to winning ways.
