Pace strong with Iftihar and Kokonda leading with Aurora's Belt nearby. OTTOLENGHI (11) looks the one to beat. Her return at Pakenham over 1400m was very good behind the talented Seychelles, sticking on gamely for second in a strongly run affair. She'll be fitter for that and sets up perfectly from the inside gate. PERFECT NIGHT (12) ran a good race first up at Sandown Hillside over 1300m, closing off nicely there from back in the field to be beaten 1.4 lengths in fourth. Only up 100m here but that will suit and she can take holding out again. LET IT BEEL (4) finished narrowly ahead of Perfect Night there and was also first up. He draws awkwardly but can push on and take catching. ANGLING ANGEL (7) resumes having run a good race on debut at Sale. She's got upside and can challenge while fresh. KOKONDA (3) ran a solid race on debut at Kyneton and can give cheek. SUGGESTED PLAY: Ottolenghi to win.
