Expecting Purosangue to take up the running with Goodes and Cheek To Cheek close at hand. LOADED GUN (3) loves this course and distance with two wins and a second from just three attempts and is drawn to get all the favours from the inside marble. Rates highly on best figures and should be right there when the judge calls a halt. PUROSANGUE (2) has won two of three overall and looks to have plenty of upside. Can run a race while fresh. GOODES (4) is a bit hit or miss but is more than capable enough on his day. In contention this time. CHEEK TO CHEEK (7) is a last-start maiden winner who will have taken some confidence from that victory. Shouldn't be slept on. MISS DE BLAAS (6) rounds out the selections. SUGGESTED PLAY: Loaded Gun to return a winner.
