Solid tempo with several going forward headed by Chico Sonado. TRIPLE VISION (5) came over from New Zealand having run within 3.5 lengths of smart mare Quintessa and ran well over an unsuitable 1200m at Pakenham, only beaten a long neck. Looks ideally placed out to this trip with added fitness and will take beating. HYDROGEN POWER (6) resumes as a gelding. He showed plenty of promise last time in, especially when over a trip, but is definitely suited in this grade and will be hard to hold out. ZOMBIE MISSILE (9) won his maiden nicely two back before a solid second in this grade last time out. Will take beating again. DOUBLERN (14) is racing consistently and should be thereabouts again. METRICAL (4) can improve back to this trip. SUGGESTED PLAY: Triple Vision to win.
