1600m C1, a dozen can run. No's 1,3,8,10,12 looks to be where the pace resides. They are all drawn out, will they all bite the bullet? Sets up well for the Allan Chau trained EXPLOSIVE POWER. Third-up here, actually won maiden at third start, that was also over a 'mile' (at Doomben) and that day drew gate one as is the case here. And lumped 60 kg's. AVERRED is the most fit and well runner in this line-up. Will take a peach from Adam Sewell but this jockey truly is flying - nine winners from latest 50 if you don't mind. 5 from 25 for Gary 'Jack' Duncan the past 12 months too. #dynamicduo. LIFT'N'MEHIGHER was a forgive in town last start, shouldn't get so far back here, just needs to slot in to then make most of the 51.5. Barriers influenced my pecking order.
