Fast pace assured with Total Love, Atomic Time and Canny Miss leading the charge. ATOMIC TIME (1) did everything but win at Murray Bridge 2 weeks ago over 900m, and surely his day in the sun is not far away. The extra 150m will suit him, and even from a wide gate, he can still get the job done here. SIMPLY SID (3) made progress at the back end of his last prep, and he is another gelding who has needed time to mature. He has trialled up quietly, and with the aid of a good draw, he can give this a shake. SNOBZ (4) was put aside after being well beaten on debut as the favourite, and he then looked a lot better when third fresh up 2 weeks ago over 900m off the back of a pair of trial wins. He cops another tough gate but stick with him. CANNY MISS (9) is resuming from a spell that would have done her the world of good. She was second as the favourite in her only run to date at Bairnsdale in June. Since then she has switched yards and will be ready to rumble, especially from the pole position. TOTAL LOVE (5) has plenty of talent and is an each-way threat fresh up. SUGGESTED PLAY: Snobz each-way.
