Hutt Street has the pace to lead in what is likely to be a moderate tempo. INYUN (13) hit the line strongly to finish a close second on debut over 1300m at Narromine. Sure to have tightened from that and will appreciate the added trip Can go one better. LA CHAPARRON (11) returned from a spell three-and-a-half weeks ago when closing off nicely into fourth. Better for the run and drawn to take closer order. Can give this a big shake. HUTT STREET (5) was beaten for early speed but hit the line well when second over 1300m at Dubbo seven days ago. Nice run last time and is worth some thought. APHELION (2) never looked likely first-up in a run that was nearly too bad to be true. Better for the run and the booking of JVO inspires some confidence. Watch for sharp improvement. SUGGESTED PLAY: Inyun to win.
