FITZPATRICK (10) made a strong late bid but just failed to pick up the winner when fresh from a lay-off as favourite last start over 5f at Mornington. Will strip a lot fitter this time around. Going up a level this time but he has the ability to mix it with them. COLLEANO (4) knuckled down strongly to get within one length of the winner in second last start over 6f at Mornington. Leading player again. WICHITALL (11) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 1.75 lengths when fifth over 6f at Horsham three-and-a-half weeks ago after being in contention on the bend. Finds a nice race and can play a significant role. TIZJAMMY (12) didn't make an impact at his last run before going for a lay-off on August 20 finishing sixth and beaten 5.5 lengths over 7f at Ballarat Synthetic. Lines up. For the first time for trainer dan o'sullivan. Among the better hopes.
