Genuine pace with Campaldino taking up the running ahead of Casual Connection and Victory Roll. KOSUKE (8) held in high regard by the stable and expecting a sharp form reversal after finishing last over 2400m in the G1 ATC Australian Derby at Randwick. Returned good figures when placing at Hawkesbury three back and expected to bounce back quickly. CAMPALDINO (4) improving stayer rewarded for his consistency when he stalked the speed for a sharp win over 2100m in the Orange Cup. Gets weight relief with Roper's claim and will take holding out again. FUN SUNDAY (7) back in grade after sitting on the speed for a plugging fifth over 2200m at Warwick Farm. No excuses today and capable of taking a hand in the finish. SUN GOD (3) Waller-trained import who looks close to a win at his third Australian start. Kept finding on the line with the 59.5kg when fourth over 2100m at Sandown-Lakeside. Lone victory came at this trip and must be kept safe. SUGGESTED PLAY: Box Quinella 8,4,7,3.
