There are a couple of improving youngsters here who could progress to take this, but maybe the veteran
SHIFTING STAR can put his experience to good use. He's a fair bit higher in the weights than when last winning but has dealt with bigger weights than this in the past, and his strike-rates at this course, over this distance and on the forecast ground are all highly encouraging, as is the form he has been in this year. He can see off the challenge of
Dragons Voice, who seems to still be well handicapped, and
Snow Squaw who has been running very well recently but has something to prove in these conditions.
