Anticipating good pressure with many of these facing the starter for the first time. MORNING WHISPER (8) and FREE FLYING (2) clashed in the Merson Cooper Stakes when last seen before a spell. Morning Whisper was on debut there as a $5.50 chance and finished a head behind Free Flying who was having her fourth start. It's worth noting Morning Whisper was much shorter in the market there too, with natural improvement and some good jumpouts she looks the one to beat. Free Flying draws the pole for Melham and also has strong claims. OBAMBULATE (3) is a colt by Tiger Of Malay on debut for the Busuttin & Young stable. Craig Williams booked from a low gate, he's jumped out well and can figure. BREVITAS (9) is a filly by Doubtland on debut for the Stokes yard who is worth respecting while CRANK (1) won well at Terang on debut and deserves a crack here. SUGGESTED PLAY: Morning Whisper to win.
