Etched In Time is the likely leader at a slick tempo. GLORIOSO (3) looks ready to tick off the 1200m box after launching late with an eye-catching second over 1100m at Wyong. At her top for this and no excuses from the draw with Osmond's 2kg claim. ETCHED IN TIME (4) kept fresh after disappointing at all three runs back. Back in trip when a fading tenth over 1300m at Hawkesbury. Since fitted with a searching 1030m trial win at Rosehill. Best form is good enough to take this out. ORYX (5) comes back a level after running a respectable fourth to Monte Kate over 1200m at this track in Midway grade. Drawn to stalk the speed and stays in the mix. POCKET EIGHTS (6) kept fresh for this after failing to see the mile out when seventh in a tougher contest here on April 25. Well drawn and goes into the exotics. SUGGESTED PLAY: Glorioso to find winning form.
