Strong tempo primarily from Gardener's Pride, Mountainsofthemoon and William Of Orange over Full Monty and Kimball O'hara. PONGOLA (6) produced a strong first-up effort over 1400m when narrowly denied by The Gliding Fish after racing prominently throughout. He should derive plenty of benefit from that run and, with the Michael Roberts–Rachel Venniker combination in excellent form, looks well placed to go one better. MOUNTAINSOFTHEMOON (2) finished strongly to claim second over this course and distance last start, and the form has been boosted with the winner scoring again since. She is racing consistently and can make her presence felt against the males. GOT THE WORD (4) caught the eye when closing off nicely for fourth over 1200m last time. The favourable draw and the retention of Anaas Mosaheb are positives, and he shapes as a genuine contender. MAC HARDY (5) finished just behind the third pick at their latest meeting and now meets that rival slightly better at the weights. There should be little between them again, and he has claims of finishing in the placings.
