Solid tempo with Jaz Session possessing enough dash to find the front. Exciting to see SMOOTH CHINO (7) back at the races following a big win in the Magic Millions 3YO at his last start. His recent trial was very strong around Jokers Grin and the form out of his last start was very strong. May need some luck from the draw, but he's a classy prospect who can remain unbeaten. YORGA PRIDE (2) couldn't bring up the hat-trick on a deteriorating track at Belmont 49 days ago and she's been freshened since. Cooper's 2kg claim comes in handy and the form out of that race worked out well. Can put her best foot forward. JAZ SESSION (8) wasn't beaten far last start behind the in-form Black Ora and jumped favourite ahead of that galloper. Maps for a lovely run and should be much-improved for the fresh run without a trial coming in. Will prove tough to run down. BRAVE SPIRIT (3) can strike third-up now despite the sticky draw. FIRST BEACH (14) looks a prospect on the rise and is not to be discounted off his last start win. SUGGESTED PLAY: Going with Smooth Chino in the last.
