Genuine tempo with the speedy Into The Future leading the way. WHO'S BENT (9) raced greenly first-up at Northam but will be better for that performance, plus he gets the Blinkers on now. Pike also hops in the saddle today and the form may have been franked in the race prior to this. Looks to get his chance and can land the knockout blow this time. I LOVE LUCY A LOT (5) wasn't far away last start at Northam when sitting on the speed and finishing just 1.4L off the winner. She should be at peak fitness now after resuming without a trial and the Winkers go on today. Expecting her to be in the finish. TAKE THE FIELD (1) looked good at the trials recently at this track after showing glimpses in his debut campaign. He can land midfield for O'Donnell and if he's improved this time in work, he'll be right in the finish. PLAYING FREE (10) can improve out in trip. SAAM TIME LUCKY (11) is next best. SUGGESTED PLAY: Who's Bent is the one to beat.
