Reasonable tempo with a few going forward, headed by King Edward. OH LOVEY NO (7) was an eye-catcher fresh when flashing home into second at Strathalbyn, then backed it up with another strong chasing second at Murray Bridge. Hitting her straps now and should handle the added trip. Chadwick reunites and has a good association. Can go one better this time. THE HIGHLANDER (9) stuck on gamely into fourth when resuming. Will be better for that run and is drawn to get all the favours for Holder. Big threat. YOUBEEFORTY (3) never looked likely last time at Bordertown when getting too far back but made good late inroads. Expect him to relish the rise in trip on the quick turnaround, and the Murtagh booking is a positive push. FIORA BLUE (6) was an impressive maiden winner two back when leading pillar-to-post. Not as effective last time when ridden quieter, but if more forward early she can give this a shake. SUGGESTED PLAY: Oh Lovey No is clearly the one to beat.
