Race Overview

TAMERLANE (5) was given a perfect ride to lead all of the way over this track and distance last start when backed off the map and he should be able to hold the front again here. More depth, but he's a pretty bombproof horse who will give a huge sight. At big odds, KING MAGNUS (2) is worth something. He's first up from a short spell here but loves this track and distance and typically goes well fresh. Can see him getting a good run midfield and sneaking into the finish. HERE TO SHOCK (10) found the G1 Toorak Handicap a bit tough last time without a great run. Second to Antino prior reads well and he draws well here. VILANA (1) looks better suited out to 1400m and his best figures would go a long way to winning this. It'd be fitting for Olly to win the race named in his honour. AYRTON (4) was back to his best first up but he can often drop off second up.
