Solid tempo anticipated with Some Eclipse leading the way. The Busuttin/Young stable looks to have found a beautiful first-up assignment for LATHLAIN (8), who was deemed worthy of a shot at Black Type races following an impressive maiden win here on debut and got within 3.6 lengths of Getta Good Feeling in the G2 Manifold Stks last time out. Jumpouts suggest she's poised to hit the ground running this prep. OVERACTIVE (1) is another back in grade first-up and a couple of quiet jumpouts should have the import primed to run a race fresh from a lovely draw. PRINCESS TORO (4) has race fitness on her side and is also drawn well, so she'll give the first-uppers some competition. PRINCESS MONTECITO (9) returned from a spell three weeks ago when she was beaten 3 lengths into fifth over 1200m at Pakenham but will be better for that, gets up in trip and draws to play a prominent role. It's hard to see STRIKE GOLD (2) winning, especially from the gate, but he'll be at peak fitness now and can sneak into the exotics. SUGGESTED PLAY: Lathlain to win.
