Solid tempo set by Rainsun and Madesian. DECALOGUE (1) looks the one to beat coming down from Sydney. Fourth in the G2 Tulloch Stakes earlier this year reads well and his past two wins have been very strong, making a sustained move to come away and score by 1.5 lengths at Randwick last time. Go close again. HARBOUR TOWN (4) is a progressive sort who has won 2/3 to date, coming clear late to win at Sale last time over 1717m. Up in trip should suit now and he can take holding out. RAINSUN (17) is coming off a maiden win at Geelong but did it well there as favourite on heavy ground. He'll relish the extra ground and maps for every chance. SHE'S GOT THE CASH (13) has been good in two of these races her past couple. She won't need to do much more to be fighting out the finish again. THINK YOUR AMAZING (8) beat She's Got The Cash home narrowly last start and is in the each-way mix. SUGGESTED PLAY: Keen on Decalogue.
