La Rosetta and Coastal Whispers can set an even tempo. LA ROSETTA (9) finished 3 lengths from the winner in fourth last start over 1600m at Moe, an improvement on her fifth at Wangaratta the run before. Tackling a more suitable race this time, should be nearing peak fitness after three runs back and looks perfectly placed to score. THE VOCALIST (2) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 2025m at Cranbourne, beaten 3.5 lengths. Strips fitter and can take care of this field. WINDS OF MARCH (7) got well back over 1612m at Kilmore last time and never threatened, eventually finishing 4.5 lengths away in eighth. Nicely placed to feature in the finish. THUNDER ZEUS (3) was never a factor first-up but will be much better for that and will relish the rise in trip. SUGGESTED PLAY: La Rosetta to win.
