Kardinya has won over a longer trip here but Bearing Bob scored over a mile at Kempton before going close again at Southwell. Deep Sigh has been thereabouts lately and is preferred to Hopeman Harbour but Marl Loughnane has sent a strong team and has another with every chance in PYSANKA . The latter has shown enough in novice races to suggest he can be competitive in handicaps and an apprentice’s allowance further helps his cause.
