Strong early tempo with American Jazz and Marvelous Night leading the way. Small but competitive field to kick off the program. AMERICAN JAZZ (4) is flying and aims up for a hat-trick today. No reason to jump off after being given five weeks between runs to prepare for this. Looks the one to catch. BEYOND READY (2) meets the top pick slightly better at the weights looking to overturn a 3.5 len margin. Should be in it a long way. EDDY STREET (3) has moved up from Victoria and rates to be a major player despite the relative strength of the opposition. HE'S ESSENTIAL (6) finished last campaign in style and can make his presence felt here. FUNNYIFITWON (1) resumes with a habit of performing well fresh. Needs to be included. CROWN WATERS (5) can pop up in the top three at a price. SUGGESTED PLAY: Stick with the in-form American Jazz who can lead this from pillar to post.
