Pace looks genuine from El Ferdinando, Silky Seth and Sirvaldane, closely attended by Cool Aza Breeze. Siding with CONQUER THE WORLD (9) who ran a strong race on debut here over 1100m, getting a long way back and charging home into third. The extra trip suits ideally, the barrier doesn't, but we'll back an in-form Ben Melham to get the job done. SILKY SETH (5) ran a solid race first up at Bendigo when settling on speed, fading into fifth late. Fitter for that and should run a good race. WHITEBAIT (11) is a gelding by Almanzor for the Waller yard who debuts. No doubt he'll get over a bit more ground in time but he's won a jumpout and looks to have good ability, respecting. SO ROYAL (12) is a filly by So You Think on debut for the Freedman yard who has jumped out well enough to be a factor despite a tricky gate. COOL AZA BREEZE (8) is knocking on the door and in the mix again. SUGGESTED PLAY: Conquer The World on top.
