1R : It is a now or never kind of scenario for the well-bred, 6-race maiden LARADO (6). The claim of rookie (-3.5kg) makes SINATRA (2) go below the last winning mark, and he ought to be considered as such. Last but not least are the chances of ANGAVAI (1), who gets the past local champion rider to pilot her high enough beyond the reach of this field.
2R : The field may be small, but it promises to be a humdinger of a race, as three of the four contestants are more or less evenly matched. If ELFIN KNIGHT (1), by a speedy freshman sire, rounds the final bend with a handy lead in tow, then he could just about last out to contain the bids of the late-rushers FALCONBRIDGE (2) and CROWN ANGEL (4).
3R : The last-start impressive winner, RULING STAR (1), has to be wary of the consistent WOLF CREEK (4), as he is capable of drowning out his encore bid. The chances of GRACE (5) are bright at this longer 10-furlong trip, as her lone preceding sibling, Vincent Van Gogh, relishes the longer trips.

4R : Barring mishap, on-a-roll GUTSY (7) looks set to bag the fifth victory in a row. ENGLISH BAY (5) has not come here all the way for sightseeing, and he should be seen trying his best in all earnest. WIND SYMBOL (3) will either follow the aforementioned duo home or split them at the finish.
5R : SHAMROCK (2) carries the best form going into this race, and he ought to be the prime fancy as such. Front-rusher RUBIROSA (4) is the main danger. Ignoring the chances of the in-form challenger from Hyderabad, ASHWA MOROCCO (8), might prove folly.

6R : STARKOVA (4) is the pick of the lot. PHARAZON (6) is not likely to capitulate without putting up stiff resistance. A level break is all that the habitual slow starter, SEA BLUSH (5), would need to drown out the bid of the fancied runners.
7R : Only the law of average could prevent TOUCH OF GREY (11) from completing his fourth classic win on the trot, as he has beaten most of this field hollow in the past. The master of KNOTTY CHARMER (4) and RULING DYNASTY (8) is a shrewd operator, and he could outwit Touch of Grey with either of his runners with a cunningly devised strategy.
8R : The speedy contestants DARK SON (2), SOFT WHISPER (4), MUTANT (8), and DEDICATE (9) are likely to dominate the finish.
