Certainlycan, Kickatinalong and Board Member to match motors but there will be other pressure. SICILIAN (12) is a two-time winner over this distance range, should be ready to peak now at the fifth run back and gets 1.5kg weight relief from the inside alley. Plenty to like about her prospects. The penny dropped for KICKATINALONG (6) when last in work stringing three wins together on the bounce. Has earned her shot at this level now and should prove hard to hold out again. CERTAINLYCAN (2) has placed two from two over this course and distance and will strip fitter second-up from the spell. Rates a genuine top-three contender. GREYZOUS (4) strips fitter third-up from the break and may earn some minor money. SUGGESTED PLAY: Sicilian to return to the winners' stall.
