Without a designated pacemaker it will probably turn into a dash home. Wide open with a host of improvers. FUTURE FRANKIE (10) showed ability in first campaign but perhaps the best run was the debut placing over a mile. Wound up strongly and expected to be doing the same here fresh. OR AM I (12) is yet to break through after six career starts. Could only manage to finish fifth last time out over 1717m at Sale following a minor placing at Werribee over 1629m the run prior. Overdue and this suits. SILKY SETH (6) is a two-start maiden who placed on debut then could only manage eighth last start, beaten 4 lengths over 1300m at Seymour. Little below par latest but extra trip a plus and deserves another chance. SHARE THE STARS (8) has placed last two and will take running down. RORKES DRIFT (5) was a solid fourth on debut and can only be improved. SUGGESTED PLAY: Keen on Future Frankie fresh.
