Pakaya Prince will roll forward and Artstrum will press on from the deep. Pakaya Prince might find the lead here, Don't Get Excited, Blunakka and My Cherry can all settle forward. Artstrum may have to push on from wide out. CAPTAIN HARRY has returned from a break with two nice wins and can settle just off the speed here and take holding out again. HONOLULU LASS resumed with a handy effort at Wangaratta and will be fitter for this. Second-up record sound and extra trip is in her favour too. Go well. ARTSTRUM ran well here two starts back but disappointed last time out. Blinkers on and with any luck she can be competitive. Pakaya Prince, Maxey Campo and Crypto Peer Rocks are all each-way chances. SUGGESTED PLAY: Something on Pakaya Prince.
