Pitch High and Topmeup should make bold bids to shed their maiden tags, a remark which also applies to Kath's Boy, who has been dropped to a favourable handicap mark, but Irish raider IMBUCATO is the selection after good efforts in a visor on his last two starts. He has the assistance of the track's leading jockey and looks to have solid claims.
