OPENING ADDRESS (3) finished 3.5 lengths away in seventh last time out over 1m at Flemington after being in contention on the corner three weeks ago. Tackles a longer journey this time. Has good early speed so should take up a forward position. Likely to feature. SHANWAH (2) went forward last start and proved too strong, getting home by 1.5 lengths over 1m1f in the G2 Autumn Classic at Caulfield. Taking on a better line-up this time but he has the ability to mix it with them. RED ACES (1) is yet to fill a placing in two runs since resuming from a lay-off, the latest when 11th over 1m in the G1 Australian Guineas at Flemington. Scored at his only try at this trip and can find peak form this time. Lay-off. Likely improver with strong top-three prospects.
