Only a small field with Off Their Perch likely to find a comfortable lead. FIRERATED (4) wasn't beaten far on debut at Pakenham and made good improvement to score at Moe at his second outing when racing up on speed. He draws for every chance here and can measure up. CHOCOLATE BOX (3) resumes with a consistent overall profile. She got over a touch further last time in but her only win to date came over this trip and she should be sharp enough to run a strong race. STORMBOURG (2) is looking to bounce back off an even run without the best of luck second up having caught the eye fresh with a big finish. He should be hard to hold out. OFF THEIR PERCH (8) is lightly raced off a solid return and has to be respected. SUGGESTED PLAY: Firerated can get the job done.
