Expecting Optics to take up the lead at a genuine tempo. OPTICS (1) finished 2.75 lengths away in fifth last time out over 1400m at this track after being prominent at the corner two weeks ago as $1.3 favourite. Steps up in journey today. Winning rider Toshiya Yamamoto stays aboard. Should be hard to stop. THERMAL (2) improved last start to finish third over 1600m at this track after being in the firing line on the corner. Has his share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. BELIEVE SUNRISE (9) settled well back and never threatened when eighth over 1600m at this track last time out. Nicely placed to make amends. B MOVIE (3) made progress last time out, finishing 2 lengths from the winner in third at the end of 1400m at this track. Another forward showing is anticipated.
