8.Rue De Royale	T & C McEvoy	John Allen	N/A	Will be a close run race between the top picks. RUE DE ROYALE drawn perfectly and racing back from the city, marginal top pick. ATHANATOS just missed as favourite last start at Sandown Hillside and gets the winkers back on, hard to hold out. EXPRESS GUARD placed when trialling at Cranbourne-Trn, chance to place. EL PASO first-up after 21 week break and has the speed to overcome drawing the widest barrier, capable of getting into the money.

9.Spellmaster	T & N Busuttin & Young	Ben Allen	N/A	SPELLMASTER first-up after 22 week break and placed at Bendigo on debut, genuine contender. ANNOTATE trialling strongly, don't treat lightly. RUSSIAN ESCAPE resumes from a 24 week spell and should race on the speed, still in this. SILVER HAMMER has two placings from three runs this prep and finished sixth last start at Cranbourne on a soft track, place only.

4.Theophilus	Vincent Malady	Beau Mertens	N/A	THEOPHILUS placed when fresh and finished strongly to end up midfield last start at Bendigo on a soft track, the testing material. REVOLVER first starter and placed in Stawell trial, place chance. KING CZAR only able to place as favourite last start at Seymour on a soft track when first up, strong place chance. SURAT DISTRICT first starter and fitter for Cranbourne-Trn trial, needs the breaks.
