Peecee Pussycat, Maximus Augustus and Taimate Diva to vie for early honours at a solid tempo. IMPERATIVE (10) was below her best at Riccarton last start over 2600m and may be better being kept to this sort of distance range. She faces open company here, but will drop 2kg, and with Terry Moseley in the irons for the first time, she is worth another chance. PRINCE ALBY (3) got back and was held up for a while before running on into third at Ascot Park. His win prior signalled that he is back to his best, and that is good enough for him to win this. MISS ENZED (9) battled away fairly well on the synthetic surface last time at Riccarton, but her turf form is stronger. Both of her placings on this course have been over this trip, and she can figure in the top 3. RIVIERA REBEL (1) struggled in the G3 Canterbury Gold Cup last start on ground that was too firm for him, but this is a far more suitable contest, and from the pole position, he may try to take them all the way. A MANDARIN (5) capped off some improving form with a game nose win at Ascot Park 6 weeks ago. Stick with her. SUGGESTED PLAY: Riviera Rebel each way.
