Genuine tempo with Iknowastar leading the way. CAPITAL ASSET (4) chased gamely to the line last start on the Kenso when resuming. Strips fitter and draws well again. Nicely placed to find winning form. ATLANTIC OCEAN (9) looked the winner close to the line when ambling up to them but just lacked the winning blow. Fitter again and James McDonald sticks. Sure to be very competitive. WHINCHAT (11) over-raced throughout last time at Randwick and failed to provide a finishing effort. Was much better the start prior when resuming here. Can bounce back. IKNOWASTAR (3) resumes and strips fitter for two impressive trial wins. Could prove tough to reel in for his rivals. THE SWOOPER (10) is open to further improvement third up but has to overcome a sticky draw. SUGGESTED PLAY: Capital Asset gets the nod.
