In a winnable event, a chance is taken that Archie Watson's good stable form will rub off on IT'S NOT UNUSUAL, who has shown enough to think there's a race or two in her and the addition of the tongue-tie here may just be what she needs to help her finishing effort. She really wouldn't need to improve a lot to take this, and is worth chancing. Smart Mover is running with some consistency and can take a medal home, and both The Groove and Conflagration have place chances too.
