Expecting plenty of speed from Dreamzel and Azeezle. Tricky race. AZEEZLE (8) has been close up in bunched finishes at his past two since a 0-64 win at Mornington. He's a speedy type who can cross to settle in the first two, and from there he should take plenty of catching. MISS TITELINE (7) struggled in a stronger race at Flemington last time out but had been racing well prior, only 1.5 lengths off subsequent stakes winner Romantic Choice at Caulfield Heath two starts ago. That's good enough to win this. LLOYD'S CROWN (6) has been around the mark without winning this time in, all in small fields. He's a winner here and should be poking through late if the gaps come. TAX FREE PROPHET (2) is racing consistently and just needs things to go his way to be swooping late. DREAMZEL (5) has built a handy little record, well placed to score at Penola last time out. She's up to this and can figure. SUGGESTED PLAY: Azeezle on top.
