A stack of early pressure, primarily from Grinzinger Star and Fair Legacy. FAIR LEGACY (4) is in stellar form as she shoots for five straight. She absolutely loves this track but sees this journey for the first time. Drawn well and is going far too good to leave off the top of selections. SHALAGA (6) rarely finishes too far away from the money. Was only beaten a head here last start by Fair Legacy, who she now meets a kilo better. Big chance. GRINZINGER STAR (2) comes through the same race, rounding out the placings over 2L away. Gets a nice weight swing on both and strips fitter third-up. Can definitely go a couple better this time. Similar story for EUREKA'S VICTORY (5). Worth keeping onside. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Grinzinger Star to win.
