Let's Go Brandon, Pretty Penguin and Brenlyn's Legacy to match motors but there will be other pressure. BRENLYN'S LEGACY (1) is a promising gelding on his way through. Was a strong winner last time over this track and trip to make it three on end. Has a strong association with Parish and should be hard to stop again, despite carrying the big weight. DANCEENUFF (3) knuckled down bravely to get the bob when resuming at Albury. Left it too late last time but closed strongly to just miss. Peaking now and is sure to be very competitive. NARCISSIST (8) will bounce straight to the front from his inside alley and be in this for a long way. LET'S GO BRANDON (4) resumes. Worked through his grades last campaign with wins at Goulburn. Promising type who can fire fresh. SUGGESTED PLAY: Brenlyn's Legacy can win again.
