Tricky one to map with a number of first starters but over this trip there is good speed anticipated. ACROSS GENERATIONS (4) was tested in Listed company at the end of last campaign and while he was well beaten there, he'd run blinders in tough company prior. Now gelded, he resumes on the back of a very sharp trial where he sat on the speed and he draws ideally. Can resume with a bang. ROYAL TALK (12) led them up down the straight here as favourite and was collared late, racing greenly to the line and beaten 2.4L. She was sent to the paddock following that effort and resumes without a trial today. CJP's booking is a positive sign though and she can put her best foot forward. SOCIAL AFFAIR (11) is progressing nicely, beaten 1.4L last start despite jumping a 40-1 pop and running a strong rating there. She wasn't disgraced on debut either and looks to have some ability. Maps nicely and can go close. LONGWAY TO THE TOP (6) has shown enough at the trials and can feature on debut. MORE THEN HARD (8) is another who can be thereabouts on debut. SUGGESTED PLAY: Keen on Across Generations.
