Group 1 winner PRIVATE EYE (1) was prominent from the outset when second over 5f in the G1 Black Caviar Lightning Stakes at Flemington last time out. Easier assignment this time. Sure to be there at the finish. Group 2 winner ZAPATEO (5) came home strongly last start to finish third, beaten 1.2 lengths, over 5½f at Caulfield when resuming after a break. Can measure up. Group 2 winner AFT CABIN (4) is a talented entire who tackled a tougher race at his last run on June 10 and finished ninth behind Think About It over 7f in the G1 Stradbroke Handicap at Eagle Farm. Big chance in this class. Group 1 winner MAZU (2) resumes from a lay-off of four months and is having his first run under leading trainer Joseph Pride. Finished ninth in the G2 The Shorts at this track over 5½f when when resuming last prep. Fitter for a minor placing in a recent Warwick Farm trial.
