Loudest Whisper was up there throughout in a moderate Gowran handicap on Friday but couldn't quicken and she's 0-24. OVERHEER ran at the same fixture, making his handicap debut and catching the eye when staying on late. He looks as good as anything in a race that shouldn't take much winning. Walkabout has won four times and though this could be on the short side the easier ground condition will be in his favour and he can get involved. Vocal Duke ran his best race last summer on testing ground so any more rain would enhance his claims. Secret Wizard wins his share and his young rider's claim can see him in the firing-line again.
