Plenty of pressure primarily from Grey Impact, Yeah Copy and Carpaccio. CARPACCIO (1) was a loose favourite fresh up at the Gold Coast and finished a game fourth, under a length from the winner. He will continue to improve with racing and should go close to taking this out. Follow your money. SIMPLY EXCELS (2) has been patiently handled and resumed from a spell to score by a nose at Ipswich 4 weeks ago on a soft track. He strips fitter and should go right on with the job now. RHUVAAL (4) capped off some good form with an overdue maiden win at the Sunshine Coast nearly 4 weeks ago. He is well-placed after a 3kg claim, and a wide draw will probably be an advantage on a wet track here. He has the scope to repeat the dose. GREY IMPACT (6) has the advantage of the pole position and should be one of the hardest to beat. PANGAEA (5) strips fitter and is worth including in exotics. SUGGESTED PLAY: Rhuvaal each-way.
