A solid tempo anticipated with Krakarib and Chakra Boy ahead of Maximum Output and Smiling Zac. WANDA ROX (1) resumed at Listed level and wasn't disgraced beaten just over two lengths on that occasion. Loves this track and trip with four wins and two seconds from eight attempts and gets some well-needed weight relief with the 3kg claim. Looks the one they all have to run down. TECTONIC PLATE (6) has a handy record over this sprint journey with a win and four seconds from seven starts. Can run a big race while fresh. RAZORS (8) is drawn to get a gun run in transit from the inside marble and may make his presence felt. SMILING ZAC (11) is a last-start winner who gets in on the minimum. In the mix. CHAKRA BOY (2) strips fitter second-up from the spell and gets some weight off. Watch for sharp improvement on the first-up effort. SUGGESTED PLAY: With Wanda Rox.
