From their low draws, Bywaters Road and Here With Me will vie for the lead at a genuine tempo. DESIGNS OF EIGHT (10) went around a big price at Werribee but charged late and only just missed. That was the fourth run of the campaign, will end up in a good gate after scratchings and the big Swan Hill track should suit. Speaking of horses who finished well last time out, ITWASONLYAKISS (2) powered home to break the maiden at Seymour. Rises in grade here but could go on with it. LITTLEBIRDIE (11) has been struggling to break through but has spent some time in BM64 grade this preparation, so she strikes her most winnable option in a while. ALBANIAN ICON (13) has been good in two runs this time in and could get a cushy run from the low draw. ANCHO (1) has barely put a foot wrong this campaign, albeit in easier races than this, but it's hard to knock his consistency. SUGGESTED PLAY: Designs Of Eight each way.
