Pace genuine with Future History booting up to lead. Tough race. DARKBONEE (11) was awful as a $2.45 favourite here last time out, never looking comfortable in between runners and dropping out. That's not ideal in a horse race especially with the rail out a long way today but he does draw wide which can suit and the win prior was strong. SEE THAT STORM (10) clearly doesn't like soft ground, struggling here last time having won well prior at Flemington. Back on top of the ground here should suit much better. ROYAL SUPREMACY (1) stuck on quite well fresh in the Heatherlie which was a genuinely run affair. He'll come on nicely from that and gets a lovely spot in running second up with the class to win this. FUTURE HISTORY (2) was good with a huge weight first up at Flemington and should be fitter, he should give a huge sight from the inside. SUNTORA (8) is through the right races and ready to peak third up. SUGGESTED PLAY: Darkbonee on top, Royal Supremacy also a big price.
