Looks a keen contest with Falcon Of Malta and Kipling's Journey pressing for the lead with Mississippi Prince and Diana's Affair close at hand. NATOYA (14) has been freshened up since a modest effort over 2200m at Warwick Farm on 3 June. Best form comes at today's trip with five top three finishes from six attempts. Poses a threat with a 6 kg pull in the weights. ADDITION (15) won a Class 4 here at this distance two back then caught the eye late at Ipswich most recently. Rarely runs a bad race and makes plenty of each-way appeal. DIANA'S AFFAIR (10) led and held Addition out of second spot when they clashed at Ipswich three weeks ago. Can run another cheeky race. FALCON OF MALTA (5) is up in grade but is racing too well to rule out. Include in exotics. SUGGESTED PLAY: Natoya to win.
