SYNCHRO (7) is still lightly raced so boasts plenty of upside third-up. Dominated fresh off a long break but was a touch flat last start here. Suspect he can bounce back sharply this time with blinkers on first time. Leading player. THE GOLDEN FIST (5) is ticking along superbly this campaign and strikes another suitable contest. Has proven versatile, so interesting to see what they do from the wide draw. Only needs to hold his form and with even luck he'll be right there at the end. PRICILLA'S CHOICE (13) didn't give her rivals a sniff last start at Oakbank when leading pillar-to-post. Ran good time and expect them to replicate from the wide draw. Will take some catching. NICAJON (1) chased hard to arrive just in time at Ballarat. Up in the weights but is worth considering.
