Selections: 4-1-5-2
On pace runners 4 and 7. AYASAKI won at Grafton 2 runs back over 2200 metres before leading and being grabbed late at Eagle Farm last start over 2400 metres. Back to this distance from barrier 2 he is sure to be hard to run down. CARACORON made very good ground this track 2nd up. Fitter again now he has a very good record this track and distance. CALIFORNIA GRASS didn't have much luck last start at Eagle Farm. She has won 2 from 5 over this distance so from barrier 1 expect an improvement. TEWKESBURY and RIGHTEOUS have rough chances.
