Should be a keen tempo with Girls Girls Girls, Circle The Sun and Pride Of Proisir prominent. NO RUMOURS (2) deserved the Maiden win at Ballarat over this distance and it was a big effort from back in the field. He's likely to give away a start again, but no surprise to see him take the next step. GIRLS GIRLS GIRLS (3) comfortably won a 70 at Geelong and has been within range the two runs since, in stronger than this. Maps well and will be fancied to win. MICKIO (7) was heavily bet and resumed with a near miss at Geelong over 1700m. Proven second up and has plenty up his sleeve. He also has claims. CIRCLE THE SUN (11) will be hurdling soon, but will be fitter and won't be far away, benefitting from a 3kg claim. SUGGESTED PLAY: Going with No Rumours.
