STATION ONE (4) ran below expectations last time at Kyneton, finishing seventh and beaten 22 lengths starting at 8/1. Alana Kelly gets the best out of this six-year-old gelding. Has the class to find the winners' list. INDEPENDENT ROAD (3) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 2.25 lengths when fifth in a 1m1f contest at Flemington three-and-a-half weeks ago after being in the firing line on the corner. Has the ability to produce a better result. DUBLIN JOURNAL (6) tackled city class latest when eighth at Caulfield, finishing 3.5 lengths from the winner. This is far easier. Sure to be competitive. DIVUS ROMULUS (13) is struggling to break through but hasn't been far away, the latest offering a third, beaten 2.25 lengths, over 1m2 1/4f at Moonee Valley. Will drift back but wind up late. Deserves respect on best figures.
