They look to roll along early with Extronize and Tiger Tank leading the charge. MARCOS (3) won impressively fresh before a 0.4L defeat last start when jumping a $1.65 favourite at Northam most recently. Chris Parnham hops on board today, with the gelding expecting to get back in the run from the wide draw. Third-up now and can get the job done. VIENNA CALLING (8) was too good last start at Pinjarra, scoring by 0.6L after being midfield in the run. This shapes similarly third-up and she turned in a strong figure when winning last time out. Building nicely and she can go on with the job. EXTRONIZE (5) was gunned down late last time out at Bunbury, beaten 1.9L. Tsang's claim comes in handy again and she's likely to be prominent from the outset once again. Can play a leading role. ARTIE'S ECLIPSE (4) steps out in trip today and looks suited by the extra 200m. Can repeat the dose. STAR SUPREME (7) missed as favourite last start but can put her best foot forward. SUGGESTED PLAY: Marcos appears the one to beat.
