ASGOODASSOBERGETS (1) has been out of the placings in two runs since a break, the latest when eighth, beaten 4 lengths, over 1m1f at Flemington. Should be peaking now and looks set to find best form. Group 3 placegetter MISSION PHOENIX (2) was out of the money when resuming from a lay-off last start over 1m at Sandown-Hillside, beaten 9 lengths. Strips fitter and can take this out. Group 3 placegetter CLAIM THE CROWN (6) missed the placings two starts back then ran a better race and finished 1.5 lengths away in fifth last time out over 1m2f at Caulfield after being prominent at the bend. Finds the right race this time and can get the job done. THINK 'N' FLY (3) showed good early speed and led around the bend last start before being cut down, finishing seventh and beaten 2 lengths over this journey at Caulfield. Good top-three prospects.
