Solid tempo anticipated with Yoshi Stardom taking charge. UNDERSTUDY (1) comes through a better race than this, working home well from midfield to grab third at Sandown Hillside, beaten just half a length. Up in trip here, he can land in another good spot and get the job done. HERE COMES RUBY (8) wound up strongly last time out to finish 1.3 lengths adrift in second over 2100m at Horsham. She'll be hard to hold out. WHISKY MOON (5) is off a let up and back from 2400m. This might be on the sharper side but he'll be staying on. ALMAGO (7) is third up off a solid run at Pakenham in similar company when fourth. Peaks now and draws to effect. YOSHI STARDOM (3) won his maiden here narrowly last start and maps for every chance again. SUGGESTED PLAY: Understudy to win.
