A keen early contest with Pompey and Admiration Express leading from Desennea. RUSTY DREAMS (6) closed off well behind a smart one last time out, beaten 2.6L to begin the campaign. Straight out to this trip is a big tick and she draws to get every chance. She proved her class last campaign and her fresh effort suggests she's not far off that form. The one to beat with improvement expected. OLY'S CHOICE (5) scored the hat-trick win by 0.9L over this 1600m here a fortnight ago and drops in weight for today's assignment. He gets a big tick with Pike remaining in the irons, and if he can continue on his current trajectory, he'll prove hard to hold out. MOJO RHYTHM (1) brings the best form into the race and he'll appreciate dropping back in grade. The 2kg claim comes in handy and he's sure to be launching late in the race. DEMOLISH (3) was too good over an unsuitable trip last start and can be better again now third-up and out to 1650m. Live chance once again. SUGGESTED PLAY: Rusty Dreams gets the nod.
