Recommendation, Acromantula and Philosopher to match motors but there will be plenty of pressure from other quarters. Very tricky race. OSCAR'S FORTUNE (2) ran a great race first up behind Bellatrix Star, who ran 2nd to Switzerland in a red-hot G1 Coolmore on Saturday. Oscar was poor last time when leading at a strong clip over 1200m but he is unbeaten at 1000m and could bounce back strongly. RECOMMENDATION (3) has been below his best at his past couple but did beat Kallos fair and square three back and will have no issue coming back to 1000m. SPACEWALK (4) was excellent over this trip fresh before struggling on Derby Day over 1200m. Don't mind him back to 1000m here. KALLOS (1) has been rock solid in two runs back with form around key rivals and must have claims. ACROMANTULA (5) bounced back to form at Moonee Valley although he does typically save his best for that track. SUGGESTED PLAY: Oscar's Fortune on top.
