Plenty of pace from the outset with Stage 'N' Screen and Dreams leading the charge. LET'SFACETHEMUSIC (1) was outclassed in the Darby Munro behind Autumn Glow two back but bounced back with a solid second to the speedy Manolo Bling at Bendigo last time out. He should get a soft run just behind the pace and that will give him every chance to see out 1200m. STAGE 'N' SCREEN (7) was beaten in a messy race as an odds on favourite here fresh, again beaten when pulling up lame last time. Gets in very light here after the claim and can put it all together. EL TERCERO (4) is a nice type who has won his past couple, too strong despite racing wide at Pakenham last time. Measures up. FLYER (2) hit the line well fresh at Bendigo after getting a long way back against the pattern. May be left with too much to do again here but will be flashing late. GRINZINGER SUN (6) is in good form and isn't to be discounted. SUGGESTED PLAY: Leaning to Let'sfacethemusic.
