SERPENTINE (3) has been out of the placings in two runs since a break, the latest when 12th, beaten 8 lengths, over 1m4f in the G1 The Metropolitan at Randwick after he was prominent at the bend. Should be peaking now and is ready to win. FRANCESCO GUARDI (5) finished 4 lengths away in seventh last time out over 1m2f at Flemington three weeks ago. Steps up in distance. Reunites with James Mcdonald who has three wins from five rides. Should be hard to stop. POSITIVITY (10) scored by a head in a in the G3 Naturalism Stakes at Caulfield then missed the frame latest when seventh in the G3 The Bart Cummings at Flemington. Nice weight drop for this. Has been in solid form this campaign with a win and a placing from three starts. Capable of going well. SAINT GEORGE (8) was beaten 4.5 lengths into ninth in a 1m4 1/2f contest at Flemington at his latest appearance. Well placed to make amends.
