Moderate tempo with More Cash leading the way and a few others keeping in touch. WEST HEAD (4) showed good early speed and raced on the pace last start before fading to finish fifth over this trip at Parkes. Peak fitness now and is expected to take some beating fourth-up. ZOUGO BOSS (8) has a moderate winning strike-rate but performed well last time at Quirindi, finishing a close second. Strips rock-hard fit now and is already a winner here. Draws the A1 and is right in the mix. OFF THE SCALE (2) got too far back last time at Newcastle but has turned in nice efforts in her two runs prior. This is a nice drop in grade so she is a major player. LIKE LUKEY (1) never looked likely last start at Scone when always back in the ruck. Is better than her two runs back suggest and can improve sharply third-up in an easier assignment. SUGGESTED PLAY: West Head to win.
