FIRST SETTLER (4) continues to race well with a win in a at this track before finishing 1.3 lengths away in second last time over 5½f in the LR Poseidon Stakes at this track. Michael Dee who has scored on him two times retains the mount. Sure to run well. Group 2 winner ENEEZA (9) is a progressive galloper who is when resuming since finishing seventh over 5¼f at Doomben four-and-a-half months ago. Has never been out of the placings when resuming from two tries. Among the leading chances. RESERVE BANK (7) was in a different class last time, sitting just off the speed before letting down impressively for a 2.75 lengths win at Ballarat over 5f. Takes on tougher opposition this time but still one of the main contenders. TARPAULIN (5) scored two runs back then was popular with punters last time but could only manage to finish seventh over the same trip in the LR The Rosebud at Rosehill. Taking on a better line-up this time but he cannot be ruled out.
