COLONEL HATHI (3) finished ninth when resuming two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 1m at Stony Creek, beaten only a long neck after being in contention on the bend. Taking on a better field but he is up to the task. THAT' Set Weights HATSHESAID (9) is yet to break through after four career starts. Managed to fill a minor placing at Moe two starts back when resuming before finishing ninth over 6½f at Sandown-Hillside last time. Likely to be about the money. SHEZAVIXEN (14) finished 3 lengths away in fourth last time out over 7f at Pakenham two-and-a-half weeks ago. Steps up in distance. Will appreciate the drop in grade. Should measure up. SINHALESE (7) stepped out on his debut over 1m at Pakenham three-and-a-half weeks ago and finished sixth, beaten 4 lengths. Likely improver with blinkers added.
