|---|---|---|---|---|

This will be a keen early contest, with Win Asteroid, Crape Myrtle and Stakeholder prominent. YELL TO HEAVEN (7) doesn't win very often but ran a nice race last time out over 1200m at this track, finishing second and beaten 0.8 lengths. Facing a tougher assignment but he is good enough to take this out. STAKEHOLDER (2) returned to form last time out, finishing second and beaten only 1.3 lengths over 1200m at this track after being prominent at the turn. Tackling a deeper field this time but he is up to the task. DIADOCHOS (6) closed off strongly last start to get up for second, beaten 1.5 lengths, over 1200m at this track. Settles back early but winds up late. Among the main hopes. ANTANO BALLADE (4) is experiencing a long win drought, extended last start when seventh over 1200m at this track. Good enough on her day and can run a bold race.
