Keen battle for the lead with Victory At Omaha, Ronny Rock Art and Acheson in advance of Own Them and Tom Cruising. Tough. TOM CRUISING (9) was back to his best placing in stronger at Goulburn. Handles the wet and will go close with avergae luck from the inside barrier. RONNY ROCK ART (2) is busting to win and just missed at Goulburn last time in better grade, Likes wet surfaces and positions forward. Draws to advantage, and the 2kg claim brings him right into it. MAGIC PHAROAH (8) has had two starts back this preparation both at the provincials. He's suited here and over a mile and fitter will hit the line hard. CEREMONIOUS (4) is in the premier local stable. Comes back to the turf and has likely been set for this. Penza is reunited from the placing two back. SUGGESTED PLAY: Leaning to Tom Cruising.
