Solid tempo anticipated with Claim The Crown and Call Me Mojo matching motors. TEQUISODA (5) was well in commission last Saturday over 2000m at Kembla but after settling back in the field was unable to pick up sufficiently in the race won by today's rival Sablonneuse. Coming back a little in trip looks a good option. Gets all the favours from gate one so prepared to give him another chance. CLAIM THE CROWN (1) improved out of sight last start when second-up from a spell, travelling closer to the pace then hanging on well for third over 1900m at Canterbury. Not a prolific winner but this sets up nicely at the third run back. ALLEGRO MISS (2) was only 2.2 lengths off the winner over a similar distance to this at Randwick last weekend. Races well here and this is her pet trip so she makes plenty of appeal. SABLONNEUSE (7) was far too good despite being a month between runs over 2000m at Kembla seven days ago. Back in trip but is going well and can run another big race. POLO (8) is one to consider as she gets out to this trip for the first time. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Tequisoda in a difficult race.
