That is the assessment from trainer Symon Wilde, who is upbeat about Inn Keeper winning the 1100-metre race.
"Inn Keeper's got a good chance of winning again," the successful Warrnambool trainer said.
"He drops seven kilograms in weight from his last run at Cranbourne.
"I thought he was a bit unlucky at Cranbourne.
"He'll be better suited to Caulfield where he goes very well and he's got an excellent record over the 1100 metres.
"This race ticks a lot of boxes for him.
"Inn Keeper has been a very honest horse during his career and if he runs up to his best, he's a good each-way chance on Saturday."
