Expecting Front Page to take up the lead at a genuine tempo. Group 1 placegetter FRONT PAGE (7) is undefeated at this track and should get total control early from the draw. Well supported on resumption when looked the winner 150m out before tiring late when a narrow third over 1100m in the G1 The Galaxy at Rosehill on March 23. Goes just as well second-up and all his wins have come at the 1200m. Group 2 winner AFT CABIN (2) is a talented entire who has frustrated the stable this time in. Disappointed when 12th behind Chain Of Lightning over 1200m in the G1 TJ Smith Stakes at this track. J Mac back aboard and worth another chance. Multiple Group 3 winner VILANA (3) resumes a gelding after disappointing when 20th over 1600m in the G2 The Ingham at this track on December 9. Fitted with two sharp trials and looks ready to win. Group 1 winner MAZU (1) looked good first-up before disappointing when 11th in the G1 TJ Smith over 1200m here at latest. Best figures can see him bounce back to form in this easier contest. SUGGESTED PLAY: Box Quinella 7,2,3,1.
