Expecting Perisseuo to find the lead but there will be plenty of pressure over the sprint trip. FANCY SHOULDER (3) broke through in style over 1430m at Naracoorte with Felicity Atkinson aboard and she sticks for the ride which is always a good sign. With confidence on her side, she looks primed to go on with the job. THE BIG WHEEL (2) didn’t fire at Strathalbyn but was in the market off a strong fresh performance. Strips fitter and is expected to be a lot more competitive. DANGEROUS SECRET (8) returns and has run well fresh without winning. Down in the weights and is in the mix. BOMBISCUIT (4) and NANKEEN (5) each way hopes both coming into this third up. SUGGESTED PLAY: Fancy Shoulder to win again.
