One More Bout should lead but there are a few other speedy types who can keep him honest. TILLMAN (8) finds it hard to win but is going well enough to test this field. Brings a 1L defeat over this distance at Goulburn, and there was plenty to like about the effort. Maps for a soft run, and Boudvillain is a key jockey switch replacing the 3kg apprentice. MISSILE DEFENCE (3) improved again, beaten a whisker in the same contest. Raced a $5 equal favourite and it was a tough effort after settling well back in the field. JVO replaces the apprentice, and he will be looking to settle him a little closer. Will hit the line hard regardless. SHYAMALAN (1) is a leader who will likely skip over from an outside gate. Two back, he won over 1280m at Orange and followed with a 1.2L defeat over 1205m at the Sapphire Coast. Stepping up to this trip for the first time is a niggle, but count on Owen to give him every chance. ONE MORE BOUT (4) is a local who will improve off a solid first-up run over 1200m at Goulburn. He's won this course and distance and is in the mix. SUGGESTED PLAY: Leaning to Tillman.
