Capulet to take the lead and control the tempo. AFRICAN PIONEER (1) was beaten a whisker here last time when stepping up to this distance range and is still shy of his best number. He was 61 days fresh for that and has been freshened 41 days for this. Has a handy 2kg claim and can go back-to-back. CAPULET (2) needs this trip and has set a solid foundation over a mile. Her middle-distance metro form reads well, and the 2kg claimer will position her forward. A player. SHADEELAA (5) is a stablemate of the top selection and is also going well enough to feature. The wide barrier was against her here last time, and she draws somewhat better for this. QUITE THE LASS (6) is up to this at best and made solid inroads on the Pakenham synthetic 8 days ago. She'll be around the mark if things go her way. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing African Pioneer.
