Yendy, Hell To Pay and Kodiak to take up the running at a strong tempo. HELL TO PAY (1) has been improving with racing this campaign and that culminated with a narrow Eagle Farm victory last time out. Winning rider McMurray stays on top and again gets the benefit of his 2kg claim. Should be right there when the judge calls a halt. CHO OYU (3) has a handy record over this distance range with two wins and a second from four attempts and goes well while fresh. Can run a race first-up. ACAPPELLA SUN (7) will be rock-hard fit for this and gets in well at the weights with the 3kg claim. Top-three contender on best figures. STREAK OF WINNING (6) will find this easier than recent Saturday outings and looks one for the multiples. The well-related YENDY (10) (half to 2xG3 winner and 2xG2 placed Chica Fuerte) best of the rest. SUGGESTED PLAY: Hell To Pay to win again.
