Expecting Captain Eagle to take up the lead at a genuine tempo. GLOBAL ECLIPSE (1) couldn’t meet expectations fresh but stuck on okay into second behind a dominant winner. Better with that run under his belt but is drawn sticky so will need a clever ride. TORO STRIKE (5) was better second up when warming nicely late over 1200m at Eagle Farm. Has been freshened 35 days and steps out to a more suitable trip. Has a chance to break a long drought. CAPTAIN EAGLE (3) carries a fitness edge and shoulders peaks that can give this a big shake. Not dismissing. TULONG (7) strips rock-hard fit and is going better than his form reads. Was a winner of this track and trip to close last campaign when getting off the mark. With Youngberry's 3kg claim he gets in at a featherweight and can play a major role. SUGGESTED PLAY: Global Eclipse to win.
