Sardonian to roll forward and dictate terms. POLITELY DUN (7) looks very well placed back to maiden grade. He was last seen running third, beaten under a length, in the Derby Trial at Flemington behind Stylish Secret who had form around G2 Stutt Stakes winner Evaporate. He'll be short in betting. BUBBLING (4) appreciated the rise to this sort of trip when third at Seymour over 2040m last time out and looks a factor off that. FUWARI (9) is lightly raced with two starts to date. She's got further improvement to come. PURE THOUGHTS (1) has been around the mark and can get into the finish again here. SHADEELAA (8) next best. SUGGESTED PLAY: Politely Dun to win.
