#2 Roman Crown has trialled well in between runs since his first attempt in Class 4. Zac Purton takes the ride this time, and this key jockey booking suggests he’ll be ready to deliver an improved performance. #1 Master Trillion won nicely on debut for Frankie Lor and appears better than Class 4 standard. He’s trialled quietly but nicely in between runs and can win again, though the widest barrier draw isn’t ideal over 1200m. #9 Monarch County ran a good race on debut; he should benefit from that experience and take a step forward here. #7 He Was You is well-prepared for his debut from the Tony Cruz yard—watch for any market support.
