The race lacks early speed so doubt they will go too hard. DEFERRED (4) resumed with a narrow defeat in stronger. She's a promising galloper with more to give and will appreciate the step-up in distance. Flies second-up, and Chris Parnham knows her well. Tough to beat. UNDER INFLUENCE (2) gave away a big start and was always behind the eight-ball at Bunbury. His three Ascot runs prior read well enough, and Pike is a key jockey engagement, replacing the 3kg apprentice. KIRALUI (6) resumed with a CL3 win at Bunbury and hasn't missed a beat. The inside barrier should be an advantage, and she can't be taken lightly. MILITARY POWER (3) missed a lip here over a shorter sprint. He's going well enough but the extra metres are a niggle. SUGGESTED PLAY: Deferred appeals.
