Pace sure to be genuine from Such A Whit and Murrajong Road matching motors, closely followed by Castile. MURRAJONG ROAD (7) has been in red-hot form this preparation with two wins and two seconds from just four outings and has won twice over this course and distance. Drawn to get all the favours from the inside alley and rates the testing material. The well-related I SAY BOOM (8) (half to 6xG1 winner Chautauqua) has hit a purple patch of form of late and is racing with a lot of confidence. Nicely placed to bring up the hat-trick. CLASS OF ROYALTY (3) is yet to miss a drum in five starts over this track and trip and always has to be considered. Top-three credentials. ACROPHOBIC (4) strips fitter third-up from the spell and may earn some minor money. CASTILE (5) next in line. SUGGESTED PLAY: Murrajong Road to continue the strong form.
