Expecting Love For Us to find the lead but there will be plenty of pressure over the sprint course. PINCHBECK (3) has needed both of his starts back from a spell and probably found the testing heavy track at Penola too tough to handle 12 days ago. The drop back to 1200m will suit him, and he is ready now to put his best hoof forward. MY TRUTH (1) has been battling to find his best and is dropping down to a distance below 1200m for the first time in his career. He is also easing in class, and on a wet track, he would not be the worst each-way option at a price. EASTSIDE DIAMOND (11) stuck to her task gamely at Oakbank 11 days ago and is likely to settle back early on in this. If the gaps come at the right time, she can run into a top 3 finish. ROYAL TELEPHONE (5) has improved in her last couple of starts by racing close to the pace. A good draw and a 3kg claim will help him here. Don't risk him. SUGGESTED PLAY: Pinchbeck each-way.
