One Hit Wonder has done enough in recent starts to believe that a race or two may go his way and this race, though competitive, is certainly there for the taking. Ermyntrude, Farmers Dream and Eye Of Eternity are closely matched on their running over course and distance in August but the first two home were both a little disappointing last time and have been off the track since. Tarita is dropping down the weights like a lead balloon and may be able to take advantage one of these days whilst Giulietta Da Vinci and Zagarock cannot be dismissed out of hand but the tentative suggestion is FEVER TREE in the hope that she comes on for her recent return and improves for her first outing with some ease in the ground.
