QUICK SHARP has been racing well of late and hit the line strongly over 1100m last start to score at Armidale. Strips fitter third up and the step up in trip looks suitable, while drawing the inside gate ensures he will be given every chance to salute again. MIRAI SAN is on the quick back-up after going down narrowly at Tamworth over the same trip. Now fourth up, he should be nearing peak fitness and is capable of further improvement. VIERVILLE resumes after a 26-week break but boasts a solid first-up record and has won twice over this trip previously. Drawn to advantage in barrier two, he is likely to settle just behind the leader and can be expected to finish off strongly. GRANDINI is another with a sound first-up profile; while he may appreciate further, he has the ability to be competitive in this field.
