Lugarno to take charge ahead of Buckenara at a solid tempo. SISU SPIRIT (7) progressed nicely last start at the second outing this prep, charging home late to be beaten under a length over 1550m at Canterbury. Lightly raced four-year-old who should be peaking now. Irish import MAN OF WORTH (4) made his fourth Australian appearance on Boxing Day at Randwick where he destroyed a maiden field over the mile. McDonald takes over - he can win again with the confidence soaring. LUGARNO (10) showed pace but tired at the end of the Randwick mile in a Midway won by The Mona Lisa recently. That tough run will tighten him right up. Sure to prove tough to catch. NOMORENIGHTSHIFT (9) hasn't been all that far away in two runs this time in work. Steps out beyond 1400m for the first time but he finds the line in a way that suggests he will run this right out. Consistent gelding MIRRA IMPACT (2) just missed at Canterbury last time and won't find this any harder. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Sisu Spirit each-way or 1 x 2.
