A race that lacks early pressure. GEORGARONI (4) stepped up to 1400m last time and ran on hard to miss a nose. Looks suited by the mile and will be tough to hold out. SNOW EAGLE (8) has finished fifth at both runs this time ion but now looks ready to fire. Placed 2/2 when third-up and extra trip a plus. Gets chance. FIORENTE DE LEGEND (3) is long overdue placing four of last five. Great record course and distance and rates a top chance again. STEELE MY SUNSHINE (7) is better than last start and will take catching over the longer journey. JOHNNIE PINCH (1) is ready for the longer trip now and has two wins and two minors from six tries at the mile. Looks a sharp improver. SUGGESTED PLAY: Follow up on Georgaroni.
