Expecting American Thighs to find the lead but there will be plenty of pressure over the sprint trip. ROYAL ACCOLADE (2) has gone under in a photo finish in both runs this time in, last start as favourite over 1100m here. Up in trip shouldn't be an issue and he can be in a handy position from a nice draw. Inching closer to his maiden win and this looks a prime opportunity to end his winless run. GREY REVOLUTION (6) jumped 16-1 first-up for the new stable and went under narrowly in a solid effort. She rates well off that effort and the inside draw should see her get every chance for Cooper. She'll carry minimal weight again and can go one better without surprising. AMERICAN THIGHS (5) can build on the handy first-up run where she was only beaten 0.6L. She comes through the same race as Royal Accolade and should strip fitter second-up. Has nice upside and won't be far away. BIG PLAYER (1) is ready to peak now and can make a statement. SUGGESTED PLAY: Royal Accolade has found his race.
