Strong tempo with Egzakly, Parppy 'N' Me and Properleigh leading the way. The well-related SHE'S A BEAUTY (7) (half to 2xG2 winner and 3xG1 placed Barb Raider) got a well-deserved maiden win out of the way last time out and will have come on with that victory now in the locker. Drops back slightly in trip here but should be right there when the judge calls a halt. STORM CAPITAL (3) is a consistent commodity who is yet to miss a place in four spins around this circuit. Strong top-three candidate. FONEELEVEN (6) resumes here but showed enough in his first campaign to warrant serious consideration in a race of this calibre. Looks to have plenty of upside. RONS FINEST CHOICE (2) gets 2kg off from a low draw and should run his usual honest race. LECONFIELD (5) best of the rest while fresh. SUGGESTED PLAY: Boxed Trifecta 7,3,6,2.
