VRC MEMBER PETER DRAKE PLATE
CADMUS (6) is flying of late and looks the one to beat again. He was good when wide in a handy Bm84 two back at this track over 1800m and went on with it to score easily at Sandown Hillside last time, again over 1800m. No issue up to 2000m, he'll be very hard to hold out. WYCLIF (7) is coming off a solid win at Caulfield in a similar grade over this distance. This looks another winnable race, staying on 54kg after the claim. POUNDING (4) was hard in the market in the Winter Championships Final last time but a bit flat. His run prior when second to Cadmus was good although 2000m might be a slight knock. SMOKIN' ROMANS (1) was just fair last time but can't be discounted as a track and trip Group 1 winner. INTERPRETATION (3) found the mile too short first-up but did run a good race second up last time in. Can improve sharply.
