Good tempo expected with Razanne, Tisseyre and Censori rolling forward. Looks a nice race for MISSAPPREHEND (3) who is third up off two good runs this time in. She's placed in both, just missing fresh behind one who has placed in stronger company since before a good effort at Flemington herself. She gets every chance here from the map and can get the job done. SHAMANSARA (4) is a big danger. She ran good time winning on debut at Cranbourne, coming from off the speed to win impressively with gaps back through the field. 1600m is ideal and she can measure up. CENSORI (1) was a dominant winner at Sandown Lakeside last time out, jumping a $16 hope but coming right away to score by 3.5 lengths. This is harder but a repeat goes close. LICENTIOUS (8) has come back well and wasn't far behind Missapprehend at Flemington which ties in nicely - she has to be considered. RAZANNE (6) won the maiden fresh and can go on with it. SUGGESTED PLAY: Shamansara at the odds.
