The speedy Turned Down should find the front with Tajawal and Monarchs Brae on his heels. REMATCH (2) wound up strongly from midfield on the turn to narrowly win a Rosehill Highway over 1500m in heavy going last start. Consistent gelding who carries weight well. Steps up to 1900m which holds no fears - he was beaten a length in Saturday open company over 2000m last prep. Clear top pick. TAJAWAL (4) wasn't asked for an effort in the run home in very heavy conditions at Rosehill last time out so forget the result. Neasham-trained import having his third Australian run and can show up now that he gets out over a bit more ground. Victorian visitor LOCO (1) did his best work late to get up for third over the mile at Warwick Farm a fortnight ago. Finished fourth in the SA Derby in 2023 so this extra trip is ideal at the third run back from a long break. GO TROPPO (5) wasn't beaten far in a similar race here nine days ago. Very fit and sure to be thereabouts again. MONARCHS BRAE (6) is twice a winner here at this trip and should be peaking third-up. SUGGESTED PLAY: Keen on Rematch.
