Tipping POSITIVITY (7) can improve out of sight second up. She was very poorly suited first up in a farcically run mile at Flemington with 59kg, finishing last but only beaten four lengths. Last preparation she won the G3 MRC Foundation Cup over this route. Expecting the tactics to be far more positive here with that run under the belt. DENY KNOWLEDGE (1) resumes. She was excellent fresh last time in off a wide run in the G1 Underwood Stakes and ended up winning a G1 Might And Power here over Mr Brightside. Anything like that wins this, although she does have to give them all weight. SHAIYHAR (10) beat the progressive Deakin at his preferred Flemington two back but was good over this route last time and should be competitive again. HERMAN HESSE (4) resumes off a short spell and has the ability to figure although 2400m is more his go. SMOKIN' ROMANS (2) also resumes and should be thereabouts trailing the speed from the inside gate.
