OVERVIEW: FOLLOWTHEACE (10) has only been beaten once in four starts for the season and that performance was a second at Menangle in fast time. He led throughout to defeat the open class pacer Our Vincent Can Gogh at Shepparton last outing and he should prove hard to beat again. THE IRON DUKE (7) produced a top performance when second behind Fox Dan at Metropolitan level last week, where he worked hard early, gained a trail and finished off solidly. He is a tough type and should go well again. ALOT LIKE LOUIE (8) was resuming since November when he finished off fast for an eye-catching second behind On The Hunt at Shepparton. He is awkwardly drawn but performed well enough first up to warrant consideration. KWICK SAND (3) has built up a consistent record and has the early speed to be prominent throughout. STARZZZ DESTINY (6) and WOTDIDUSAAAY (9) are both quality horses that could show up without surprising. EARLY SPEED: 3 (possible leader), 1,6,7 RATINGS: 10/ 7,8/ 3/ 6,9/ 1

THE IRON DUKE (7) produced a top performance when second behind Fox Dan at Metropolitan level last week, where he worked hard early, gained a trail and finished off solidly. He is a tough type and should go well again. ALOT LIKE LOUIE (8) was resuming since November when he finished off fast for an eye-catching second behind On The Hunt at Shepparton.
