Expecting Warchime and Hoodys Horse to press forward and set the tempo. KHOR (4) did a good job when a narrow winner over 1800m two back before a sound fourth last time at Caulfield, beaten less than a length. That looks good form in a race that has been weakened by scratchings so goes on top. MUKTAMIL (8) improved plenty for a second up win. Building a handy record at this distance so could go on with it. DENMARK (2) will be fitter for two runs since a spell, beaten just over a length last start at Caulfield. Could peak. ROGUERY (7) was solid last time and is suited returning to a course where he races well including a win two starts back. SUGGESTED PLAY: Leaning to Khor.
