Capital Asset should spear straight to the front of the small field. EDITED BY (1) has been plying his trade in harder Saturday metro grade of late and will appreciate the drop back in company here. Is one from one over this course and distance and strips fitter second-up from the break. Should be right there when the whips are cracking. The well-related LIVING FREE (2) (half to G1 winner Warning) is a two-time winner here on his home circuit and will be rock-hard fit for this. Looms as the main danger. CAPITAL ASSET (4) goes well for hoop Smith who has two wins and two placings from seven steers. Has won when second-up before and handles all going. Should give backers a sight up on speed. IKASARA (6) saves his best form for this distance range and looks a must for the exotics players. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Edited By.
