PRADO (4) is poised to win after placing at his last three outings, most recently when second after he got a long way back in the run over 1800m at Gold Coast. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. COUNTER (1) raced on the pace last start before fading to finish ninth, beaten 8 lengths, over 2200m at Eagle Farm. Change of jockey to Ryan Maloney who has a strong record when aboard with a win and two placings from three rides. Should be in the finish. HE'S A SAINT (6) got off the mark with an impressive maiden win last time out over 1700m at Ipswich. Is lightly raced and has plenty of scope for improvement. Re-unites with Jaden Lloyd who was on board last start. One of the likely contenders despite the step up in grade. SACRED BULL (2) settled well back then came home powerfully to score by one length over 1800m at Gold Coast last time out. Can figure in the finish.
