A lightly raced and exciting four-year-old is set to conquer his biggest career challenge and make it three wins on the bounce at Monday's feature Moruya Cup meeting.

Twin Telepathy ($2.80 favourite on TAB), a sprinting son of prolific sire I Am Invincible, has returned for his second prep with consecutive wins since switching from Anthony Cummings to the Joe Cleary stable at Queanbeyan mid-year.

He cruised home for the easiest of wins first-up in a Super Maiden at home before again putting a Class 1 field to the sword as a hot favourite at Nowra three weeks back.

And such is connections' confidence, Twin Telepathy has jumped straight to the Class 3 AMH Auto Group Country Class 3 Handicap at Moruya and up to 1200m with regular rider Jess Taylor again in the saddle.

The race looms as a springboard into a feature carnival sprint or even a crack at a Saturday Highway if the gelding wins again.

Meanwhile, Canberra-based gallopers are set to star in the penultimate and feature North Ryde RSL Moruya Cup over 1450m.

And with nearly all of them emerging through a similar Federal formline from home, it's a less fancied one in the market who can steal the thunder.

Smarter Than You ($11), a tough six-year-old mare in the Todd Smart stable, hasn't missed a place in four runs since switching from her former Goulburn base.

Two starts ago she swept home to easily win a much weaker BM 58 at Nowra before only being beaten a long neck by rival Canberra visitor La Sante in the BM 80 Federal at home on December 27.

It's hard to believe Smarter Than You, who has a near 20% winning strike rate from 27 starts, opened up $10 in early betting while La Sante (now $17) was even longer around the $13 mark.

Another Queanbeyan raider Toes In The Water is equal $4 favourite for the race with All Machiavellian.
