Cool Jakey should lead but there are a few other speedy types who can keep him honest. COOL JAKEY (16) comes here in peak condition with the nice weight drop. Pinched a break on straightening before being nailed on the line when a narrow second over 1400m at Rosehill in BM88 class. Capable of getting the job done in this stronger contest. TAVI TIME (5) resumes with sound first up figures. Both trials suggest he's come back much stronger and will relish the fast tempo. Hard to hold out. SANDPAPER (4) never in the contest when a plugging fifth over 1500m in the G3 Doncaster Prelude at Rosehill. Drop in trip and the firmer surface will help his cause. The chances don't end there. AMENABLE (2) and STRAIT ACER (8) hold each way appeal from their respective low draws. SUGGESTED PLAY: Cool Jakey and Tavi Time to fight it out.
