Exciting to watch this one's 'catch me if you can' tactics. With the quicker pace, didn't get such a big lead over the 1800m last time and will be looking to do so over the 2000m here

Just the one run 11 months ago and then spelled. As it often does, the patience paid off and it was impressive winning when resuming here three weeks ago.

F: X5335B(13)W(58.5)

Good run when finished strongly to be alongside Baggio at Pukekohe over this distance a month ago. Ran on the pace when up to 1600m two weeks ago but was one paced. Drops back and rates.

There's no doubt this 3yo gelding is a bit special. In both starts he has shown that ability to turn it up a notch and kick away when asked, and that's the sign of a good horse

F: 3B(7)W(56.0)

Good stable that rates this one. Four length winner of trial here in January but, although warm favourite on debut, got back and was never a winning hope. Benefits from that experience

Dividend : $1.90
Place
F: NoneB(9)W(58.0)

6 Inspired By Art
F: 2217B(9)W(56.5)
( J-Warren Kennedy )
( T-Walker/Bergerson )
We selected it last start in a quality 3yo field and as it stepped up to 2000m, so impressive with its run prior. Lost plate then so giving it another chance
Main Danger
1 Sudbina
F: 64114B(3)W(56.5)
( J-Kozzi Asano )
( T-James/Wellwood )
Has a bit of class and would have been closer to Molly Bloom in a quality field last time, but for not getting a clear run
Next Best
4 Harlow Rocks

3 Khanshe
F: 41671B(10)W(56.5)
( J-Matthew Cameron )

Trainer does well with his team and this one comes into this off a winning run. Extra distance should be to its liking
Longer Odds
5 Sakura Season
F: 6X101B(4)W(56.5)
( J-Courtney Barnes )
( T-B & R Foote )
Interesting to see the trainers not only back up this last start winner quickly (that's a good sign) but also step her up to 2000m for the first time.

F: 832B(2)W(58.0)

1 Jungleland
