No Overtaking should find the front with Lychee Green Tea and Comme Ci Comme Ca on her heels. SIRLEAF (2) jumped a $2.7 favourite at Ballarat on debut and wasn't beaten far. He has jumped out three times for his return and is sure to have come on. Has a low gate and is well-placed to make amends. AFFIRMATIVE SMILE (10) is showing promise and has won of his lead-ups. Has an awkward barrier, but will be naturally improved, and the in-form Coffey is booked. DINA TYCOON (4) resumed on the synthetic and wasn't beaten far. He's won a Flemington jumpout since and has the blinkers on for the first time. NO OVERTAKING (7) is a leader who was good on the synthetic on debut and then folded up on a soft track at Seymour at odds. Strips fitter and will appreciate the better surface. In the mix. FOXIET (11) debuts from a handy gate and has won a Bendigo jumpout. SUGGESTED PLAY: Sirleaf appeals most.
