Here's the highlight sprint of the year. I have 11 and 12 leading from 10, 1, 9 and 7. Where this surfaces ends up is obviously of great interest but the superstar returning would have to be very averse to Soft ground. KA YING RISING is looking at back-to-back Everests and 22 straight overall so something left-field would need to unfold to get an upset out of him. I can see him crossing for a similar trail to last year and if he is to fan a little wider on the bend then so be it, I doubt that's any sort of problem at all. Stable indications are that he is better prepared this year so good luck everything else. TEMPTED was runner-up to him last year and hasn't been beaten since (all here at Randwick). 12 months ago of course she was a filly carrying 51 kilos and also drew on the fence. JOLIESTAR has started $6 fave and $5.50 in the last two runnings. $3.30 the place about her could be the bet I have.
