Hot pace certain with Amor Victorious, With Your Blessing and Private Eye keen to take up the running. The Everest runners look set to dominate. BRIASA (1) total forgive after jumping only fairly from the wide gate, and never travelled like the winner when a below par eighth in The Everest over 1200m at this track. Gets a much better set-up out to his preferred trip and will prove hard to stop. JIMMYSSTAR (2) ridden out of his comfort zone from the awkward gate when he gripped on to run a gutsy third in The Everest. Can take the sit here and finish over the top of them from the right gate. LADY SHENANDOAH (12) will appreciate the extra trip after striking a bit of trouble in the run when a respectable seventh in The Everest. Regular rider back on and will need everything to right from the sticky gate. Each way. WAR MACHINE (3) copped a bump on jumping and failed to get into any real rhythm when a battling tenth in The Everest. Clark sticks and best figures can see him return to form. PRIVATE EYE (4) tough gelding who brings different form here. Deep into the prep and stays in the mix. SUGGESTED PLAY: Briasa looks great each way value.
