It's likely to be tactical given scant early speed. Looks another nice race for FACTCHECK (1) who is in good form. He proved too good up on speed here last time out, beating the fast finishing Simurgh who has since been well backed to win impressively in Saturday company. They aim at another realistic option with Factcheck who should be very hard to catch again. SUNLIT SERENADE (8) was a smart winner on resumption in a Class 1 at Echuca, coming right away to score by 1.5 lengths. She's got upside and can measure up. REALIKA (12) ran a good race first up at Caulfield Heath when running on strongly for second, suggesting she's come back well. She can figure with added fitness. NOBLE WORK (11) is a lightly raced type who just missed LADY SADLER (7) first up. Lady Sadler was fitter but is flying and both are in the mix again. SUGGESTED PLAY: Factcheck to win.
