Mighty Aphrodite, Crown Riches and Kaido will not hold back as they vie for the lead from Anecdotal and Vallencourt. ANECDOTAL (2) led all the way to win a metropolitan maiden last start after some consistent prior form. The wide draw is offset by the 3kg claim here and he can roll forward and take some catching. HALLIWELL (5) is a mare in form that backs up seven days after a dominant win in slightly easier grade. If she can reproduce that effort she will go very close. RUBIKTON (12) has trialed to suggest a forward first-up showing while HOOKED ON WEALTH (6) is going better than his form card reads. Can contest for a place. MIGHTY APHRODITE (4) landed his maiden success last time out by 1.1 lengths over 1050m at Balaklava and must go into calculations off that. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Anecdotal each-way.
