#9 Very Grateful has shaped nicely in both local starts, finishing within two lengths each time, and looks primed to peak third-up with blinkers applied—the same gear he wore when winning in New Zealand. #10 Everstar maps for a soft run from barrier 1 and can atone for last start when held up at a crucial stage. #2 Power Koepp has thrived since the stable switch to Mark Newnham, notching two wins and three seconds from five runs, and from another good draw, remains a leading player. #1 Wings Of War made late inroads first-up and with that run under his belt, can take another step.
