COOPER (5) resumes for a new stable in this. After a 3kg claim is a definite win threat here. Course proven. Dry tracker. POUKAWA (6) won his debut here. Fourth in a trial earlier this month so looks primed for this race. Quinella and trifecta must here. GRAEME JOHN (7) has raced better at his last two starts. Trifecta and first four chance. Has won on dry and wet ground too. AQUILIFER (10) is a course proven runner. Has won on dry and wet ground as well. Must include here. STIPULATOR (11) is a trifecta and first four chance in this field. A 4kg claim helps his cause. Cannot be omitted.
