Solid pace with Seastraand finding the front but it won't be a picnic with a few other speedy types engaged. ENAMORADA (3) returns from a 35-day let-up with a good winning record. Comes up from Victoria after she launched late from back in the field with a game second over 1400m at Caulfield in BM84 class. Kept up to the mark with a 900m trial at Canterbury. Expected to go close in this weaker contest. DEEP PLEASURE (5) returned from a lengthy break with a gritty on-pace second over 1300m at Warwick Farm. Jumps into the box seat and gets her chance at the good each-way odds. NIGHT AGENT (7) good style of gelding chasing his fourth win at start five this prep. Handled the rise in trip and grade with ease when saluting over 1500m at Hawkesbury. Tougher test today and can overcome the sticky barrier. SIRAGUSA (12) won well first-up in easier grade, then lost the rider over this track and trip in the LR S/Pacific. Since fitted with an 801m trial placing at Warwick Farm. No shock to see him run a big race. MOJAVE RIVER (6) imported mare making her Australian debut. Can surprise with the claim. SUGGESTED PLAY: Box Quinella 3,5,7,12.
