SANCHEZ (11) has recorded two wins and two minor placings from the past five starts. Maintained the impressive form last time when 6 metres from the winner in second over 1650m at Bendigo. Not drawn to best so may need a 10/10 drive. Ideally placed and is sure to play a major role. USYK (2) modest result two starts ago at Menangle then again didn't measure up at his latest appearance over 1730m at Bathurst, beaten 24 metres into eighth after being close to the pace throughout. No excuses from this advantageous draw. Taking on a better field but he is up to the task. SIREN SEA (3) is worth another chance after a last-start seventh over 1609m at Menangle eight days ago. JIMMY JAMES MAGUIRE (10) is next in line but might need a few good breaks from an awkward draw.
