CONTEMPLATEMYFAITH got off the mark at the expense of a subsequent wide-margin winner last time, so it's worth taking a chance that he can prove too good for a mark of 116 on his first go in a handicap. Essential Jaco has made a positive start under Rules and may yet have further improvement in him, so he's feared most ahead of Wicked West.
