Good early pressure anticipated with a large number of first starters. REFLECT (12) third up for this and big drop in class on the firmer track. Never comfortable in the heavy (9) going when eighth over 1300m at Rosehill in a BM72. Assess on her good first-up third placing. SANCTIFIED (5) best performance in five career runs when a plugging third in the heavy going over 1150m at Randwick Kensington when resuming. Capable on his day and has claims. The debutants looked well placed in this, with RAJWA (11) showing glimpses at the trials on Soft going leading into this. She's a half-sister to Manaal and the stable have taken their time with her. Can play a leading role on debut. ORANGE TSUNAMI (4) is another debutant who has shown some ability at the trials coming in. Drawn to get his chance and won't be far away. SUGGESTED PLAY: Siding with Reflect.
