Without a great deal of early pace evident Stars In The Night may lead the way over Savage River. Looks a good race for THE SPIRIT OF ZERO (2) while many of these struggle for their best. Has a strong record here and when second-up, and turned in an eye-catching run fresh when rocketed home for a close-up fifth. Looks tough to stop. NO ACCESS (8) has been thereabouts last couple but best form by far is here and gets chance to find form. ZOETE'S ROCK (3) has been fourth at last couple of runs. Has the claim and should enjoy a soft run. With clear running will be tough to stop late. STARDARMUS (6) is experiencing a long win drought and is on a quick back-up after racing at Hobart last weekend. Will be doing best work late. DESIGNER DREAMER (5) is coming back in trip and can improve sharply. SUGGESTED PLAY: Follow up on The Spirit Of Zero.
