Pace looks to be genuine with Sabino and Play Dice matching motors in advance of Via Monte and Wise Words. SECRET STONES (7) can sit just off the speed from an inside barrier and has placed 2/4 first-up. Cooper's claim comes in handy though and with the race looking to set up nicely for her, he can make an impact first-up. PLAY DICE (2) was disappointing in his two runs last time in and looks well placed here first-up off a nice trial at Belmont. Faithfull sticks from that trial and he can be on the speed from a favourable gate. Hasn't won for a while but looks ready to run a bold race first-up. HANG GLIDER (1) will find this much easier than what he tackled first-up where he was beaten3.8L in Saturday grade. Mahony's 2kg claim comes in handy and back to 1100m won't be an issue. Can make his presence felt. SABINO (8) can feature on his best form. CRYSTALIST (6) is next best. SUGGESTED PLAY: Secret Stones can get the job done.
