Corbusier to take charge ahead of Dollson at a good tempo. NOLAN (2) is a consistent conveyance who has hit the top-five at his past eight starts and is yet to miss a place in four attempts over this sprint journey. Gets 3kg off with the claim and will be ready to peak now fourth-up from the spell. Sure to be right there at the business end. CORBUSIER (7) hasn't done much wrong with two wins and four placings from six outings to start the career and should get a gun run from gate two. Drops in weight and has to be respected. TALONS (4) resumes here but has won first-up before and may run a race while fresh. WICKLOW LASS (6) is a three-time winner over this track and trip and can feature in the finish again. AMNESTY (1) strips fitter second-up and is one for the exotics players. SUGGESTED PLAY: Boxed Trifecta 2,7,4,6.
