MONTY THE MISSILE (2) wasn't far away on debut last start over 6f at Newcastle, finishing second and beaten a nose. Can open winning account this time. PARADE GROUND (8) caught the eye last start over 6¾f at Wyong, coming from well back to finish 0.6 lengths from the winner in second. Should be at his peak now so another big run is on the cards. JUMP IN THE LINE (7) is a three-start maiden who finished fifth at his most recent appearance over 6¾f at Wyong. Among the chances in what looks a nice race for him. AKKADIAN EMPEROR (3) returns from a lay-off of seven months and is having his first run for a new yard. Finished seventh at Curragh over 7f when when resuming last time in work. Ran fourth in a trial at Warwick Farm over 6f recently.
