Expecting a strong gallop with Zweig and Reset The Jazz taking up the running over Verdad. Not a whole lot of winning done in this field in recent times. VERDAD (2) is the pinup for that crew but does hold the most recent victory, scoring nicely two back at Flemington to break a run of outs. Struggled last time on the sticky Moonee Valley track, he should set up nicely here in a winnable race. FIASCO TESS (8) is knocking on the door having just found one better her past two. She gets in with 53kg here and looks well placed. EUPHORIC (4) has been solid in two runs back, chasing Is It Me and Verdad for a pair of fifth placings. Should be ready to fire now. CHIHULY (7) struggled fresh but can improve, as can RESET THE JAZZ (6) who was off a very long spell at Sandown Hillside. SUGGESTED PLAY: Verdad on top.
