Feature race of the day, which has thrown some good winners in the past, and tricky affair with so many first-starters, many from top stables. Siding with race experience, though, and GRANDSTRAZ (11) has trialled up nicely after a two-start debut preparation when he beat home all bar the subsequently-Stakes-placed Beskar at second start. Drawn to be prominent throughout. BELLA PIETRA (8) didn't far so well at the draw but will be better for the good debut showing in a handy Pakenham maiden. REGAL VISIONS (13) is also drawn wide but there was a lot to like about a recent soft Flemington jumpout win. ARDESHA (6) is another who's shown a bit at the jumpouts. DIAMOND GUST (2) will find this a touch easier than the debut run.
