Hot tempo expected from Balastier and You're Two Vain. BALASTIER (9) resumes. He won three on the bounce last time in, far too good at Seymour fresh last time in in a Class 1, winning his next two nicely as well. Forgive the heavy track flop during Cup week at Flemington, he's well up to beating these with Lane booked. YOU'RE TWO VAIN (4) resumes. He's a lightly raced gelding who has won 4/5, his only defeat coming before a break at Ballarat in a good race. He's got good speed and will take catching. ALONG THE RIVER (10) is flying without winning, beaten half a length at Caulfield Heath last time. He's drawn wide but will be dashing up at some point. RUNLIKENENCRYPTION (12) is racing in fine form, close up at Rosehill last time in a BM78. She'll be hard to hold out. CODIGO (5) is in the each way mix again. SUGGESTED PLAY: Balastier to win.
