Private Jumbo and Thorin to take up the running at a strong tempo. VIVACISSIMO (4) looks well placed again. She put the writing on the wall two back at Flemington when fourth, finding another no metro win race at Sandown Hillside and beating a handy horse in Savamoon. This looks another suitable affair and she should be hard to hold out. JUST JENNI (7) is going well in three runs this time in, just finding a progressive one better at Seymour last time out. She's still improving and should measure up well to this. CURSE IT (6) resumed with an even run at Pakenham over 1400m, getting home fairly well in a slowly run affair. He should be better suited out to a mile second up and can improve. CHANTRA (9) was solid in an easier race at Moe last time and has each way claims while PRIVATE JUMBO (3) would be a chance if he can find his best. SUGGESTED PLAY: Vivacissimo to win.
