QUERIDO has a penalty for winning over C&D a week ago. He's scored off higher marks in the past, however, and Paddy Butler's charge looks to have another victory in him before the handicapper catches up. Very Well Red will do well to reverse latest running with the selection especially if she sets the pace once again, while Daniel Thomas was ending a long losing run when winning over 1m2f last time, but is not certain to appreciate the drop back in distance and is closely matched with Monashee Rock on earlier running.
