Beatification should lead at a strong tempo. BEATIFICATION (2) will be peaking third up and will find this slightly easier than her last start when finishing runner-up by a short-head over 1100m here 3 weeks ago. A clever 3kg claim means he will carry less weight, and with the advantage of the pole position, he is the one to beat. TWO TIMES TWICE (1) caused an upset when winning here fresh up over the top pick and normally improves with racing. He cops a wide draw and carries more weight, but a repeat of that last start effort would see him in the finish again. VALAROC (5) did not run on as expected here nearly 2 weeks ago, but did have an excuse for that poor performance. His form prior was good, and he is worth another chance. STARSPANGLEDANCER (9) had a tough trip before peaking on his run when resuming from a spell here nearly a fortnight ago. She strips fitter and can finish closer this time. ROYAL SIGNAL (6) also needed her fresh-up run here 3 weeks ago and is capable of a top 3 finish with the right run. SUGGESTED PLAY: Valaroc each-way.
