Genuine tempo with Pharoah's Glory and Cider With Rosie leading the way. PHAROAH'S GLORY (8) just missed at Ballarat and at following Swan Hill after over this trip. She is free running and has been kept on the fresh side. Peaks and is clearly the one to beat. EPOCH (1) resumed off a longish break with a solid effort at Hamilton. Jumped out well and won't have to improve much to form the quinella. MALAWI MAN (2) maps well and has been racing well without winning. No surprise to see him in the finish in this contest. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Pharoah's Glory to win.
