Tricky one to map with a large contingent of first starters but expect good early pressure. BENNY AND PAUL (3) resumed from a spell last start with a sound second over 1400m at Greyville. Nice return and close to a win. Likely improver with strong prospects. PRIZED POSSESSION (4) turned in a good effort on debut three-and-a-half months ago when 2.25 lengths away in third at Greyville over 1000m. Has not been to the races since that outing. Will be better for that race experience and is a solid top-three chance. OCTOBER RUSH (10) is a two-year-old colt on debut. From an elite family that includes a G1 victor, being by Rafeef from the former top race mare Miss October. YUKINKO (6) should improve and is a chance in this line-up.
