A strong tempo is assured with Noble Decree and Beans Means leading the charge. STARSONUS (3) has placed three of four overall including two from two over this distance range. Strips fitter second-up from the spell and gets the reliable Gollan/Maloney combination. Rates the testing material. NOBLE DECREE (5) is unlucky to still be a maiden finishing runner-up in three of four starts to date and strikes a very winnable contest here. Can go one better against this lot. RUNAWAY TYCOON (6) was well in the betting in two starts before the spell and where there's smoke there's fire. Can run a race while fresh. BEANS MEANS (1) is drawn to get all the favours from the inside alley and is usually thereabouts. One for the multiples. DAITANNA (12) has hit the top-four in all four outings to date and may earn some minor money again. SUGGESTED PLAY: Boxed Trifecta 3,5,6,1.
