Tricky race to kick things off. BOYZ LITE UP (6) looks as though he wants this trip following his most recent effort where he stormed home from a long way back over 1650m at Belmont. Drawn better today which looks to suit him too and he's open to plenty of improvement. Can see what he's capable of today. STAR PROPHET (1) is better than what we saw last time out when a long way back over 1300m. He jumps right up in distance today, but that mightn't be a bad thing for him, and he has plenty of fitness under his belt. Drawn better today and can improve. SPANISH KAT (2) stuck on well over 1916m at Albany last start and is one who we know will see out the journey. The 3kg claim comes in handy and he won't be far away. RIBELLATO (5) is building nicely and can make his presence felt.
