KETTLE HILL (7) settled well back last start and never threatened when 5.5 lengths from the winner in seventh over 1m at Moonee Valley. Beautifully placed and is sure to take a ton of beating. FLOSSING (11) wasn't disgraced in city class last time when finishing eighth at Caulfield. Has a solid record at this journey with three wins from nine starts and should be in the finish. POUNDING (1) Group 1 placegetter. Pushed forward last time and boxed on to finish third over 7½f at Moonee Valley. Will be handy despite the tricky draw. Winning claims on best figures. Multiple Group 3 winner EARL Set Weights OOD (3) was out of the money when resuming from a lay-off last start over 7f at Caulfield, beaten 3.5 lengths. Fitter so anticipating a better run this time.
