Poznan failed to land the odds dropped into this grade last time but was beaten only a nose and should be in the mix once again. Three Olivez also returned a losing favourite when runner-up here recently and is another to consider while Esor left a poor debut effort behind when finding only one too good over a shorter trip and is preferred to Mozano. But a chance is taken BUMPA improves for today’s drop in class and return to the main track and it’s Kathleen O’Connell’s charge that gets a speculative vote to come out best.
