Solid tempo likely from Ambassadorial and Sea What I See. Big field and a deep betting race for the Easter Cup. Just have to give IMMEDIACY (6) one more chance at the prices he's come up. The fresh run behind subsequent G1 Australian Cup winner Light Infantry Man was outstanding before racing flat second up. Being back and wide was impossible at Flemington last time - forgive that, he's a huge price. PLYMOUTH (7) had been building nicely into the Albury Cup and just found a local too strong on the day but ran very well for second. He's rock hard fit and draws for a nice run. BANKERS CHOICE (1) resumed with a very good third in the G2 Peter Young Stakes, splitting Apulia and Light Infantry Man which is top form. Fitter now to 2000m, he too looks a big price despite a hefty impost. SEA WHAT I SEE (10) can peak third up. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Immediacy.
