Strong tempo with Legacy Bound and Shining Smile leading the way over Mcgaw. TENTYRIS (1) clearly on top, resuming for his second campaign. He was excellent when just missing in the G1 Blue Diamond at his third start before going to Sydney and beating the likes of Wodeton and Beiwacht in the G2 Todman Stakes before an issue ruled him out of starting near-favourite in the Golden Slipper. Very well suited at the set weights here, he can put his hand up as one of the horses to beat in the Coolmore next month. LEGACY BOUND (4) kept his unbeaten record intact with a gritty win first up in the Poseidon Stakes here at 1100m. Fancy the dash home didn't suit, up to 1200m can see him improve quickly. MY GLADIOLA (8) won the Cap D'antibes in faster time than Legacy Bound on the same day and has to be respected. ROSBERG (6) is the big query. The big spruik landed on debut to win the Mckenzie but that wasn't the strongest race. No doubt he can elevate but he'll need to. TYCOON STAR (2) next best. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Tentyris & Legacy Bound.
