Plenty of early pressure primarily from Capper Thirtynine, Zebella and Hello World. PERSIAN SPIRIT (9) resumed with a soft win at Geelong over 1125m, scoring by 2.75 lengths in a BM64 and giving the indication he can measure up in better races. Looks set to go on with it this time in. ZEBELLA (6) won first up at Morphettville and beat some decent horses in the process. She can measure up here. SPARKLING (7) won two in a row prior to last start when well beaten in a strong race at Flemington. Far better suited here. HELLO WORLD (13) presents third up and should be ready to fire, he just needs luck getting across from the draw. MOOR MUMM (8) is in the mix. SUGGESTED PLAY: Persian Spirit on top.
