BUCKINGHAM PALACE (1) is a two-start maiden who placed on debut then could only manage fourth last start, beaten 3.5 lengths over 5½f at Warwick Farm. Probably goes back from a wide draw but can put in some big final splits. Rates highly on debut effort and should go well. NDOLA (3) wasted no time getting off the mark on debut over 6f at Pakenham Synthetic three-and-a-half weeks ago. Promising type who can measure up again. LAST DRUID (2) was a winner over 5f at Wyong last time, racing on the pace before getting the upper hand and scoring by a long neck. Expected to feature. LOVELYCUT (11) crossed from an outside draw last time to stalk the lead before drawing clear to win by one length over 6f at Pakenham Synthetic. Cannot be underestimated.
