Multiple Group 2 winner PERICLES (2) raced close to the lead before clearing out to score an effortless 2.5 lengths win over 7½f at Moonee Valley last time. Winning rider Blake Shinn stays aboard. Likely to feature. Group 2 winner BUCKAROO (8) crossed from an outside draw last time to stalk the lead before drawing clear to win by a nose over 1m in the G2 Chelmsford Stakes at Randwick. Goes up a notch this time but is expected to be in the finish. South Australian Derby winner COCO SUN (13) finished 2.75 lengths away in seventh last time out over 7f at this track when when resuming from a lay-off. Steps up in journey. Right in this. Group 3 winner MUNHAMEK (3) missed the placings two runs back then didn't do any better last start when 3.5 lengths away in fifth over 7½f at Moonee Valley. Capable of featuring prominently.
