A strong gallop is likely with Que Tempesta and Just Fine taking up the running, closely attended by Positivity and Gear Up. Plenty of chances. IMMEDIACY (16) looks beautifully placed dropping in the weights. He returned with a very good run at Moonee Valley behind Pericles, finding the line nicely. Out to 2000m suits and his only run here he bolted in with a G2 Autumn Classic. JUST FINE (2) was poor fresh but improved second up in the Chelmsford, albeit with the track to suit. Still, out to 2000m looks better again and he's got a fitness edge on a few of these. Will be on speed and hard to get past. SAINT GEORGE (15) was luckless fresh in a messy race. Any rise in trip will aid his cause. QUE TEMPESTA (1) was very good in the same race at Saint George and is another suited up in trip. SUGGESTED PLAY: Immediacy to win.
