Repeater, Shasfa and Fantaxtic to take up the running at a strong tempo. FANTAXTIC (2) brings strong form to resumption and is proven fresh. He races forward and will be naturally improved. Shapes as the one to beat. CLASSIC RULER (7) has had one blip in a string of threatening efforts. Found a place at Belmont last time, and he's been kept on the fresh side. STRYKER'S GAL (6) was quickly back on track, winning a Kalgoorlie Maiden as favourite. This is harder, but she will hit the line and is well in the mix. ONLY US (1) resumed in much stronger and needed the outing. He may need longer now, but has a handy 3kg claim and on an 11-day return, he should be hitting the line. SUGGESTED PLAY: Fantaxtic appeals most.
