Moderate pace from Sacrify taking it up with Aix En Provence and Oceanfront on his back. SACRIFY (10) improving gelding who looks well in at the weights with Fitzgerald's 3kg claim. Sat on the good tempo and kept finding first-up with a sound third over 1500m here. Looks set for a good prep and will give plenty of cheek at the big odds. TAZIMA (3) lightly raced stayer heading in the right direction. Was just under a month between runs when he rounded them up with ease to salute as fav over 1900m at Rosehill seven week. Kept up to the mark with a 1207m trial and expected to go close. CENTENARIO (5) resumes with residual fitness on his side. Found plenty with the 58kg for a game on-pace second over 2400m at Rosehill in BM78 class on February 25. Two recent trials were good and sure to be thereabouts. NATOYA (11) gave a good account of herself when she jumped in grade with a closing second over 1600m at Warwick Farm. Can make the necessary improvement as she gets out to her right trip. YOUR CHILLI (12) had genuine excuses from the wide gate in the G3 Frank Packer Plate. SUGGESTED PLAY: Box Trifecta 10,3,5,11,12.
