Presszora to take charge ahead of Hi Frank at a solid tempo. The well-related PRESSZORA (5) (half to G2 winner Amor Victorious) couldn't have been more impressive saluting by over four lengths at Mackay on debut and looks the runner in this field with the most upside. Can go right on with the job now. HI FRANK (8) has been right there in all three runs this time in and will be ready to peak now fourth-up from the break. Should take some running down. PEACEFUL PRINCE (1) is first-up for the new barn but will find this easier than recent south QLD efforts. Respect any market confidence. DEN END (7) draws the inside alley and may make his presence felt. BAILE FERVOR (2) next in line with Missen on top. SUGGESTED PLAY: Presszora to go back-to-back to start the career.
