An absence of early speed provides Winning Side with the opportunity to lead. HEREDITARY (1) got the job done over this track and trip last time out and winning rider Dolan stays on board. Should be able to sit up on speed from gate two and looks the one they all have to run down. The well-related LOYALTY COUNTS (5) (half to G3 winner and G1 placed Arabian Summer) has a handy record over this course and distance with two wins and a second from five attempts and will be ready to peak now third-up from the spell. Ready to show what he can do. The consistent PRADO (4) has hit the top-four in eight of his past nine starts and is usually thereabouts. Don't discount lightly. GRIPPING (3) strips fitter third-up from the break and gets some weight relief with the 2kg claim. In the mix. HARLEY CHARLIE (7) rounds out the selections. SUGGESTED PLAY: Hereditary to win again.
