U R NOT THE FATHER (3) was ridden quietly then picked up fairly well in the straight and finished 6 lengths away in fifth last time out over 1106m at this track when first up from a spell. Steps up in distance today. Sure to prove very tough to beat. GOTANOTIONTODRINK (4) wasn't far away when resuming last start, finishing third over 1106m at this track (Dirt). The extra journey should play into his hands. Among the winning hopes. WHATNOWDADDY (5) ran below expectations when fresh from a spell at this track (Dirt) over 1106m last time, finishing sixth and beaten 9 lengths. Nicely placed to bounce back. MR SLEDGE HAMMER (6) returned from a spell three weeks ago when he was beaten 21 lengths into fourth over 1106m at this track. Fitter so anticipating a better run this time.
