Without an obvious leader, it may be left to Vieste, Brannum and Bulla Vinaka to control the tempo. EXCEED SUCCESS (5) is busting to notch up another win. Savaged the line for fourth two back, then produced another good effort here last time. Gets the key booking of Loy off a 37-day freshen and rates the one to beat. ROONAMI (4) dug deep to record her second win of the prep two back before being left a fraction flatfooted last time at Goulburn. Strips rock-hard fit and reunites with winning hoop Coriah Keatings from a favourable draw. Should get every chance. BRANNUM (1) backs up quickly from his run at Nowra and is a track and trip winner. Cole's 2kg claim helps. Last start winner BOURBON QUEEN (7) the next in line. SUGGESTED PLAY: Exceed Success to win.
