Lots of speed predominantly from Aussenkehr, Hair Trigger and Espinoza. PLUS FOUR (3) was not beaten far over 1600m at Greyville last time. He has won once and finished second once from as many starts on this course. He is having his peak run and should notch up his third-career victory. WINGS WITHIN ME (1) ran a good race when second over this distance at Greyville last time. Rates well in this line-up as an each-way chance. EXCEEDINGLY GLAM (4) won a game race over 1160m on the Standside course last time. She finished third in her only attempt over this distance. She is in a good space and merits healthy respect. ENSUING (8) ran on strongly when winning over 1160m on the Standside course last time out as the favourite. He takes on stronger rivals but is in a good space and should be well up to the task at hand.
