Expecting G Liner to take up the lead at a genuine tempo. TRIUMPHANT WARRIOR (6) ran on well from midfield but just peaked on the run late in the race, beaten 1.3L after hitting the front midway down the straight. Drawn slightly better for Purton this time and the rating he produced there is stacks up well against his rivals. Can shed his maiden tag. FAST VICTORY (5) hasn't won for 552 days but stuck on well to be just 0.5L off the winner most recently. The wide draw is a niggle, but he's been right in the market his past couple at this track and trip and he looks to have his hoof on the till. STARSHIP EIGHTY (8) stormed home to finish 0.3L off the winner, beating home Fast Victory in the process. The inside draw is a niggle with his racing style. He'll need some things to go his way but he has shown he's good enough when the breaks come. MISSION BRAVO (4) disappointed as favourite most recently but his form prior stacks up well. Include.
