TACITO (5) will find this a little easier after racing town last time, finishing fifth over 6f at Caulfield Heath. Can bounce back. VAIL MOUNTAIN (4) raced below his best last time when eighth over 7½f at Cranbourne, beaten 4.5 lengths. Ideally placed and is sure to prove tough to beat. WHERE'S POPPY (6) tackled city class latest when fourth at Caulfield Heath, finishing 1.3 lengths from the winner. Has good early toe so he should be handy in the run. Sure to be competitive. COME ALONG JEFFREY (1) is a last-start winner over 6f155yards at Geelong, showing good early speed on the occasion and leading throughout to score by 1.3 lengths. Among the chances again.
