A genuine pace is on the cards with First Immortal, Crimson Vine and Sharma Princess to roll along early. THE MAP (2) is the state's best stayer. Was denied by the barest of margins last start in the G2 Adelaide Cup back in March. Drops back 700m with the 54 days between runs, keeping the legs ticking over with two trials. Kah gets the best out this mare. Sure to be very competitive. FIRST IMMORTAL (1) carries the fitness edge over his two main rivals and should be nearing his peak now fourth run in. Shinn reunites and is 3/5 when partnering. Every chance. LAKE'S FOLLY (5) is best of the outsiders after a good run in BM80 grade last time out and he drops down to the minimum weight today. Can run a big race along with DISAGREEABLE MISS (4) who was placed over this course and distance last time out. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing The Map to win.
