Verdict

Siding with the lightly raced and resuming OLIVEANOTHERDAY (10). Three runs in his maiden campaign were good, winning well at the second time of asking, close up in a handy 3yo race at Moonee Valley before a spell. He's won a trial leading in here and Lane hops aboard. GODTFRED KIRK (9) has been thereabouts in two runs back from a spell, in the market at Sandown Hillside last time when perhaps unsuited in a dash home. A stronger run race here over 6f could suit. YOLO (6) has been close up in three runs since a fresh win. That form has him in the finish again here. FOXENBERG (3) tackled a stronger race second up at Caulfield Heath and ran credibly. 6f is a little niggle but he'll give a sight. ONE LONG DAY (2) resumes having run well fresh last time in.
