ROMEO EMPIRE (2) is a talented type and proved too classy last time to win by a neck at this track in a handy 45.10 beating Crafty Prospero. Is yet to miss the placings from this draw, including four wins, from 10 starts. Form reads well for this. CRAFTY PROSPERO (1) goes very well this trip starting 15 times for six wins and six minors. In the money last time at this track (45.13) in a OR1, finishing a neck second. Makes strong appeal on best. PRINCESS MATILDA (5) finished in the minors last time but the start prior broke the clock when winning over 664m at this track, taking a OR in an enormous 40.40. Should be in this for a long way. ROCKMOUNT ROSIE (6) placed last time and is worth some thought.
