Plenty of first starters engaged which makes it tricky to map, but we can assume a keen tempo. TAKEN (5) resumes and is a promising galloper in a top yard. He's threatened in stronger races and will be naturally improved. Damian Lane was aboard in a recent trial and stays with him. He looks well-placed. GLAMOUR ANA (6) resumes and has shown enough. Missed a lip at Kyneton before the spell and she's jumped out positively here. Currie is reunited, and a fancied stablemate has been scratched. BLACK COAL (1) was narrowly beaten at Geelong on debut, bet into $2.60 favouritism, and will have taken fitness and learning. He has claims. ZUNNA (12) debuts and has prepared well. The late betting will be key. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Taken.
