Ole Go, Wonderful Sky and Verzain to match motors but there will be other pressure. CZECH OUT (3) was taken back from his wide draw in the key lead up, the LR Without Fear Stakes, and was left with a stack to do rounding the bend but picked up powerfully along the inside to grab a minor cheque. The rise to 1200m is perfect now and if he can settle closer he will be awfully hard to stop. VERZAIN (6) took out that lead up with a dogged effort up the inside to fend off the hotpot Ole Go. She should be even better third up, so there is no reason she can’t beat them again. OLE GO (1) was first up in the Without Fear when just missing. He will be better for that and draws much kinder this time. If he has come on, he can easily turn the tables. WONDERFUL SKY (7) made light work of her maiden at Pakenham and gets her chance to show her stuff in stronger company. HARRY MET SALLY (2) drops back to 1200m and brings valuable race experience. Not dismissing. SUGGESTED PLAY: Going with Czech Out.
