Paper Cowboy is the likely leader at a strong tempo. XUANFENG (4) bounced back last start and scored by 0.6 lengths after being in contention on the bend over 1075m at Thangool. Going up a level this time but he is good enough to play a major role again. EXTRA HANDS (7) has hit a purple patch with two wins and three seconds from her past five outings and it's hard to knock mares in form. Include in calculations. PAPER COWBOY (1) saves his best form for this sprint journey and gets the services of Cormack in the irons. Don't dismiss lightly. The well-related COINCIDE (3) (half to 2xG1 winner Converge) has been plying his trade in harder contests and will appreciate the drop back in company here. Good enough on his day and can fill a top-three spot. SUGGESTED PLAY: Boxed Trifecta 4,7,1,3.
