CURLY JAMES (6) was a beaten favourite but performed well as runner-up in last week's return to Sydney, beaten 1.5m by a smart miler. Draws wider but he is yet to miss a place at this distance and he finds a winnable assignment so goes on top. CANTFINDABETTORMAN (4) will be fitter for last week's placing when a metre behind Curly James, his first outing for five weeks since his fourth in the Group 1 Blacks a Fake in Brisbane. Draws inside the top pick this time so is a chance to turn the tables. STAR MAJOR (7) is in form with back-to-back wins at this circuit and distance, coming from this same barrier to score by 1.4m in his latest appearance. Must respect winning form. PERFECT STRIDE (1) made a successful switch from Victoria when scoring well here last week. Came from a much wider barrier there so should enjoy the inside draw.

CURLY JAMES (6) was a beaten favourite but performed well as runner-up in last week's return to Sydney, beaten 1.5m by a smart miler. Draws wider but he is yet to miss a place at this distance and he finds a winnable assignment so goes on top. CANTFINDABETTORMAN (4) will be fitter for last week's placing when a metre behind Curly James, his first outing for five weeks since his fourth in the Group 1 Blacks a Fake in Brisbane. Draws inside the top pick this time so is a chance to turn the tables. STAR MAJOR (7) is in form with back-to-back wins at this circuit and distance, coming from this same barrier to score by 1.4m in his latest appearance. Must respect winning form. PERFECT STRIDE (1) made a successful switch from Victoria when scoring well here last week. Came from a much wider barrier there so should enjoy the inside draw.

Race comment
CURLY JAMES (6) was a beaten favourite but performed well as runner-up in last week's return to Sydney, beaten 1.5m by a smart miler. Draws wider but he is yet to miss a place at this distance and he finds a winnable assignment so goes on top. CANTFINDABETTORMAN (4) will be fitter for last week's placing when a metre behind Curly James, his first outing for five weeks since his fourth in the Group 1 Blacks a Fake in Brisbane. Draws inside the top pick this time so is a chance to turn the tables. STAR MAJOR (7) is in form with back-to-back wins at this circuit and distance, coming from this same barrier to score by 1.4m in his latest appearance. Must respect winning form. PERFECT STRIDE (1) made a successful switch from Victoria when scoring well here last week. Came from a much wider barrier there so should enjoy the inside draw.
