Good early pace from Do It For You and Coco Jewel going forward to hold out some other speedy customers. WATERMELON (9) looked good three-back when getting off the mark at Eagle Farm over 1400m on May 8. Unsuited when back in trip at latest when a plodding sixth over 1200m at Murwillumbah on June 10. Has a fitness edge over most of these and can play a leading role. IRISH GYPSY (12) went forward from the good gate on debut when a gritty head winner over 1400m at Gatton on June 11. Should get through the going and not to be underestimated. EMBOLDEN (3) returns. Yet to strike fresh but did work well in readiness for this fresh run. Tricky alley to contest but his best form will see him be very competitive. Don't take lightly. DO IT FOR YOU (2) next. SUGGESTED PLAY: Watermelon gets the nod.
