Solid tempo likely from Exceltrain and Great Fortune. REGAL STATUE (12) gets the blinkers on for the first time today after flying late in the race to finish 1.7L off the winner. Chris Parnham takes the ride today and while she is likely to get back again, she'll handle the going and be flashing home late in the race. GREAT FORTUNE (4) has been freshened since his fresh run at Ascot over 1400m where he was only caught late and hasn't been sighted since that performance. He has the speed to be up front from the barrier and the form out of his last start worked out well. Can play a prominent role. SUPERNATURAL (15) flashed home down the outside after getting well back last start at Pinjarra. Up to 1400m now looks a good move and the booking of Pike suggests she's ready to land the knock out blow. EN PLEIN AIR (13) is better than what she showed last start and she can bounce back with the blinkers on first time. CELEBRITY PRINCE (3) will appreciate the rise in distance and should be strong late. SUGGESTED PLAY: Siding with Regal Statue in the last.
