Star Casino, Lysander and Star Decorum to take up the running at a decent tempo. MR TRAFFICANTI (4) drops back to a winning trip on the quick turnaround and will appreciate the drop in grade. Is drawn to advantage and keeps the 3kg claimer on to get him in nicely at the weights. Looks the one to beat. FOX DUNNETT (9) made very light work of his rivals last time on the dirt at Streaky Bay. That puts him in great stead for this and he can keep the ball rolling. LYSANDER (3) returns and makes his stable debut for the Lynch. His peak NSW efforts read nicely for this sort of contest and with his good early speed he should be able to take full advantage of the inside pillar. Worth monitoring. FUNNY LEGS (10) chased in vain behind Fox Dunnett last time. Meets the winner slightly better at the weights but will need a smart steer from the wide alley to reverse the result. Tough to get a read on STAR CASINO (2)'s last two runs but he has form that can measure up. Keeping safe. SUGGESTED PLAY: Mr Trafficanti to win.
