A tough finish. EPIMELES was 81 weeks away before his two runs back this campaign. He's had similar beaten margins for both satisfactory efforts. Before he resumed, Craig Williams was aboard for two big jump out wins. Perhaps drawing outside most of them is helpful. He will find this easier than the Flemington race last time. DRAMATICUS is flying. He looked unlucky last time. He's drawn for the right trail. LETHAL THOUGHTS had a confidence booster last time. Getting a mile back from an outside draw was a blessing given the tempo that MANIFEST THE MILLI (light weight chance here) set. He did win well though. Expect NEARING LIBERTY, STREET LARK and DARK SIMBA to run well 1st up. SWIFT CIRCLE ran well 1st up. He was a 2nd up winner last time in. YAM never runs badly.
