CANADIAN RULER (1) is racing in career-best form for Matthew Dale and is a great chance to chalk up the hat trick. Picked up nicely in the heavy ground at Hawkesbury last time over this distance. Drops 1.5kgs today so despite going up a level looks the one to beat again. MY LAST HOORAY (3) caught the eye two back at Warwick Farm then was ridden on pace last time out over 1200m at Randwick and couldn't quicken as required. Might be looking for this trip now so he deserves another chance. WARRIOR FOR PEACE (10) was lining up for only the fourth time when he came from next to last to record a stunning win over the mile at Scone recently. Back a little in trip and goes from a Class 1 to a Class 3 but he has tremendous scope for improvement. BOYS NIGHT OUT (2) has been racing well in Brisbane and should be cherry ripe fourth-up. Always respect Matthew Dunn runners in Highways. STRAIGHT FIRE (16) strips fitter and is in the mix with a light weight.
