Nepravda and Zavega can be prominent. SMART SHAZZA (9) has a handy record here at this circuit with a win and a placing from three attempts and will strip fitter second-up from the break. Should get a cosy run in transit from the inside marble and looks the one they all have to run down. NEPRAVDA (5) hails from the astute Heathcote yard and will strip fitter second-up from the break. Rodd stays on top and looms as the main danger. WINCHMAN (1) is two from two over this distance range and rarely puts in a poor one. Can run a big race while fresh. ZAVEGA (14) gets a run now and is a last-start winner who shouldn't be discounted lightly. SUGGESTED PLAY: Leaning towards Smart Shazza.
