TAVI TIME (9) went back early from his wide draw over 7f in the Provincial Championships Final at Randwick last time but hit the line strongly to finish fifth. Will drift back but is sure to prove tough to beat. IKNOWASTAR (3) showed good early speed then led into the straight last start before fighting on to finish second, beaten 0.8 lengths, over 7½f at Rosehill. Expected to be in this for a long way. HOLLYWOOD HERO (11) improved sharply on his fourth two starts back at Canterbury with a win as public elect over 7¾f at Canterbury a week-and-a-half ago, getting home by 1.75 lengths after being in the firing line on the corner. It doesn't get any easier but on his best form he is one of the key runners. GOLDEN PATH (5) has been in the market at his last couple of starts since resuming but hasn't made an impression, last start finishing eighth over 1m in the LR Golden Mile at Bendigo. Can sneak into the finish.
