Time for the big one, The Quokka. OVERPASS (1) is looking for the three-peat and looks on song following a big run in the TJ three weeks ago. The draw is no issue, he'll roll across and make his own luck up on the speed. He's the one to beat. HEADWALL (6) also comes through the TJ where he was unlucky and flashing late in the race. Getting away from the rail is a big tick for him and if he gets an unimpeded run in the straight, he'll take plenty of beating. FRONT PAGE (2) can roll across with Overpass and sit up on the speed as he likes to do. His form ties in through Overpass and Headwall and if he handles the travel and is at his best, he'll give a big sight from up on the speed. JOKERS GRIN (9) was below his best in the Roma Cup but the fresh win was scintillating. Can bounce back third-up and be in the finish. WESTERN EMPIRE (3) creates interest first-up. He's a class horse who maps well and can be flashing late.

    Racing well. At the latest run 3rd of 13 at Randwick in the G1 T J Smith on April 5 over 1200m, 1.4 len behind Briasa with 58.5kg at $31.

Draw is a big tick for him and he'll be flying late.

    Comes off a 49 day let-up. Most recently 2nd in a small field at Ellerslie in the G3 Kings Plate on March 8 over 1200m, slow going 5.5 len behind Alabama Lass with 58kg at $4. The start before that won by a nose at Ellerslie G1 Sistema Railway January 25 over 1200m in soft going defeating Alabama Lass with 56.5kg at $6.60. Not going well enough. Form has been franked in Victoria and he could be a flyer at odds.
