Race comment
Last year's runner-up BAY OF BISCAY (11) will have to overcome a wide barrier if he is to go one better but represents the class of the race. He hasn't missed a place in six attempts at Menangle, winning three of them including this year's Chariots of Fire. That race is a good pointer and he has been set for this since so will be at his peak. FIGHTER COMMAND (8) qualified for this race with a demolition job on his rivals in Hobart two back and pushed multiple G1 winner Catch A Wave when beaten a head at Melton since. Beat Bay of Biscay home there and he draws inside that rival so could do it again. HESITATE (2) is a progressive colt who has had seven weeks off since his Queensland Derby second but was kept up to the mark with a trial win. This could pan out well for him from the low draw. Tough barrier for MIKI TO SUCCESS (14) but he is flying with big wins at his last two including the Discovery Stakes at this circuit and distance. The ace draw can see SEATHESTARS (1) in the finish.

Race comment
Last year's runner-up BAY OF BISCAY (11) will have to overcome a wide barrier if he is to go one better but represents the class of the race. He hasn't missed a place in six attempts at Menangle, winning three of them including this year's Chariots of Fire. That race is a good pointer and he has been set for this since so will be at his peak. FIGHTER COMMAND (8) qualified for this race with a demolition job on his rivals in Hobart two back and pushed multiple G1 winner Catch A Wave when beaten a head at Melton since. Beat Bay of Biscay home there and he draws inside that rival so could do it again. HESITATE (2) is a progressive colt who has had seven weeks off since his Queensland Derby second but was kept up to the mark with a trial win. This could pan out well for him from the low draw. Tough barrier for MIKI TO SUCCESS (14) but he is flying with big wins at his last two including the Discovery Stakes at this circuit and distance. The ace draw can see SEATHESTARS (1) in the finish.

Race comment
Last year's runner-up BAY OF BISCAY (11) will have to overcome a wide barrier if he is to go one better but represents the class of the race. He hasn't missed a place in six attempts at Menangle, winning three of them including this year's Chariots of Fire. That race is a good pointer and he has been set for this since so will be at his peak. FIGHTER COMMAND (8) qualified for this race with a demolition job on his rivals in Hobart two back and pushed multiple G1 winner Catch A Wave when beaten a head at Melton since. Beat Bay of Biscay home there and he draws inside that rival so could do it again. HESITATE (2) is a progressive colt who has had seven weeks off since his Queensland Derby second but was kept up to the mark with a trial win. This could pan out well for him from the low draw. Tough barrier for MIKI TO SUCCESS (14) but he is flying with big wins at his last two including the Discovery Stakes at this circuit and distance. The ace draw can see SEATHESTARS (1) in the finish.

Race comment
Last year's runner-up BAY OF BISCAY (11) will have to overcome a wide barrier if he is to go one better but represents the class of the race. He hasn't missed a place in six attempts at Menangle, winning three of them including this year's Chariots of Fire. That race is a good pointer and he has been set for this since so will be at his peak. FIGHTER COMMAND (8) qualified for this race with a demolition job on his rivals in Hobart two back and pushed multiple G1 winner Catch A Wave when beaten a head at Melton since. Beat Bay of Biscay home there and he draws inside that rival so could do it again. HESITATE (2) is a progressive colt who has had seven weeks off since his Queensland Derby second but was kept up to the mark with a trial win. This could pan out well for him from the low draw. Tough barrier for MIKI TO SUCCESS (14) but he is flying with big wins at his last two including the Discovery Stakes at this circuit and distance. The ace draw can see SEATHESTARS (1) in the finish.
