HOT TOO GO (3) resumes and is Listed placed over a middle distance. He won a recent Flemington jumpout with Daniel Stackhouse aboard, and he sticks. He goes fresh and kicking off over 1500m won't be an issue. He'd have them covered if presented on song. MERIMBULA (11) jumped out well and was beaten 2L here on debut, heavily bet. Has the rail and is sure to have come on. Jumps from the inside gate, and Jamie Mott stays with him. YULE POINT (14) can improve quickly for a sharp metro barn. Finds easier and maps for the run of the race. Damian Lane is a key jockey switch. FIRST CHORUS (7) just missed at Seymour and will be better for it. The gate is awkward, but she's a hope at a price.

    Resumes after a break of five months and has been in the money when fresh before. Finished off last campaign third of 10 at Pakenham Mdn-Sw March 20 over 2000m, 1.5 len behind First Appearance with 59kg at $1.55. When resuming last campaign third of 8 at Sandown-Lakeside Mdn-Sw February 19 over 1400m, 1.75 len behind Highlands carrying 59kg at $1.80. Looks forward enough after a recent trial win. Expected to feature.

Second-up 3rd of 11 at Seymour Mdn-Sw on July 20 over 1300m, on a slow track; 2.75 len behind Mosamour carrying 59.5kg at $4.20. Among the better chances.
