COOL 'N' FAST (1) has been crying out for more ground in all of his 3 starts since resuming from a spell, and with Craig Grylls in the saddle this time, he should go close to taking this out, especially racing over 1400m for the first time. MULAN ARDECHE (9) made progress last prep over a winter campaign, and she resumes without a trial. Her best form will be over a longer journey, but while fresh, she can pinch a race like this. CROWN PRINCESS (6) is a promising lightly tried mare resuming from a spell with 3 trials under her belt. Watch closely. GENEVA (5) has been freshened up since finishing well back in G2 company nearly 7 weeks ago at Tauranga. Hard to beat back in this grade. EVER CHARM (3) could be one to spice up any top 4 combos.
