Genuine tempo from Aitch Montana leading Highly Spoken. Tricky race to end the day. MYZOOM (8) disappointed last start at Belmont when on the quick turnaround, dropping out to be 6.5L off the winner. Her performance two back was much better and the better draw on hand today is a big help. Can bounce back in a big way. MISS VEUVE (3) is on the quick back-up here, finishing 5.5L off the winner after getting back and not featuring at Pinjarra. Catarino's 3kg claim comes in handy and she should be able to sit much closer this time around. Can return to her best form here which would see her in the finish. TASSORT WE WANT (5) gets the visors on today and gets the chance to sit a little bit closer this time around. He's much better than he showed last start behind a smart one and he can put his best foot forward. HIGHLY SPOKEN (4) tired from the front last start in the same race as Tassort We Want. Not out of this from the inside draw. UNIVERSAL IMPACT (7) can bounce back with the drop in trip today. SUGGESTED PLAY: Myzoom gets the nod.
