Genuine tempo from Icy Pole booting up from an inside draw to join Our Wynd Chymes and Mosquito Award up front. OUR WYND CHYMES (8) debuted with a win two runs ago. Fair effort last time out when second over 1000m at this track, beaten a long neck. Beautifully placed and is sure to take plenty of stopping. DANZSIN (2) led into the straight last start over 1400m at Warrnambool on heavy going but could not sustain the pressure and finished sixth. Finds a suitable race and can bounce back. MEH KEFFI (1) lines up for the first time since November 6. Started the last campaign impressively when in the placings over 1000m at Ballarat Synthetic. Looks a strong top-three prospect. MR BUTT'S BOATS (3) ran a better race last start, finishing 2 lengths away in fourth over 1400m at Bendigo. Nicely placed to find some form. LANTANA (12) has found only one better at the past two, including the smart Biologics at the latest. A repeat of that effort would see her go close. SUGGESTED PLAY: Our Wynd Chymes each-way.
