Good early pressure with Henry's Faith or Octahedron likely to take up the running. TAKE A PICK (7) was game in defeat last time out, backing up a strong first-up maiden win with a luckless third at Bordertown. Hard fit now and should take some stopping with winning hoop in Murtagh reuniting. CARASHAN CHLOE (9) is ready to take the next step after an impressive maiden win at Penola. She gave every indication there’s more to come. Milnes sticking is a positive. OCTAHEDRON (6) brings solid staying form into this, sticking on well last time over a much longer journey. Boasts a solid record over this trip without winning. In the mix. BALTIC WAY (1) has been below his best in recent starts but is capable on his day. Don’t underestimate if he finds clear air. SUGGESTED PLAY: Take A Pick gets the nod.
