VAUBAN (2) got the job done when resuming last start in the G3 Sky High Stakes at this track over 2000m after he came from a long way back on straightening. Has a strong record at this trip, scoring two times from three starts. Takes on tougher opposition this time but is expected to be in the finish. ARAPAHO (3) stuck on well last start to finish second over 2000m in the G3 Sky High Stakes at this track after showing good early speed. Meets some better types this time but he has the ability to test this field. WARMONGER (11) delivered a nice performance last start when second over 2000m in the LR Randwick City Stakes (Canterbury Cup). Won't be bothered by this longer journey. One of the main contenders. DUKE DE SESSA (4) was sent forward last time out and boxed on to finish a neck from the winner in second at Flemington over 2000m. Harry Coffey who has scored on him two times retains the mount. One of the better hopes.
