Reasonable tempo with Chantra probably leading but a few others should keep her honest. LOUD CHARLIE (5) looks very well placed back to this grade. Two starts back he won his maiden nicely at Sandown Hillside, thrown in the deep end last time in the G3 CS Hayes Stakes behind Sixties, who placed in the G1 Australian Guineas on Saturday. This suits much better. BOLD STRIKE (6) has been rock solid in two runs back, well supported last time when sticking on midfield. He can be peaking now. CACHINK (1) is knocking on the door, just finding one better last time at Colac. He gets every chance up on speed here. CHANTRA (8) was just fair in a stronger race here last time but her prior form reads well and she can improve. CROWN CRUSHER (2) has each-way claims on a better run here last start. SUGGESTED PLAY: Loud Charlie on top.
