I Am The Empire is likely to take charge and set a decent tempo. LINCOLN ROCKS (1) presents third up here having made nice improvement last start over this route, getting home well late to grab a narrow third. He can strip fitter again and does drop back a notch in grade. With the right run midfield, he'll be awfully hard to hold out. I AM THE EMPIRE (2) also comes back in class having given a sight in the Benalla Cup last start, sticking on for third. Previous form was consistent and he'll likely lead this which counts for plenty. CHOCOLATE ROYAL (10) is racing consistently and handled the rise to 2000m at Flemington nicely last time out. Should be right there. MY ROCA FELLA (11) is off a win in easier company but can have more to offer. SUGGESTED PLAY: Lincoln Rocks to win.
