Dare we say it? Yes, we're with the Myers stable here too. Much better than a one time winner, having been second 8 times? Better for close up finish when resuming and in-form stable apprentice rides

( J-Jim Chung )

Good enough to be there at the business end. Course/distance winner on Heavy track. First run for 10 weeks so drop back from 21200m to 1600m should be OK.
