Solid tempo with several going forward headed by Gift Of Oratory. Tough. PLATINUM DESTROYER (6) has been mixing trips and threatening a win. Has a wide gate, but the mile is his sweet spot, having won 2/3 at the trip. Has Yendall aboard today, and he knows his way around here. LUCKETT (4) resumes and is right up to this if presented forward. He's proven fresh and kicking off at the mile won't bother. His jumpouts have been sharp, and Egan rides from the inside barrier. THE DAILY PLANET (17) has been beaten 1L as favourite in his last two and should appreciate the step up in trip. Meech stays aboard, and he can feature with average luck in the run. MY UNCLE DID IT (11) won her Maiden here first up and was expected to deliver again at Ararat following, beaten 1.7L. May not have been suited to the tight circuit, and from a wide gate, she'll get plenty of space here to finish it right off. SUGGESTED PLAY: Platinum Destroyer appeals most.
