David O’Meara has a couple of similar types in this. Watchable and OUT DO failed to win last year but both have slipped down the weights and drop in class today with Daniel Tudhope siding with the latter. Dark Side Dream won a Class 5 sprint over 7f here recently while Menelik usually runs his race on the all-weather but is also facing a much tougher task. Hoofalong is at home in this grade but hasn’t raced since October while Mazzini is preferred to Outer Space off their current marks.
