PRINCE OF WALES (1) finished third when resuming at Gosford then couldn't repeat the dose last time when fourth at Newcastle over 6f when beaten 1.75 lengths. Has the pace to take a forward position. Tough to beat on best. Can open winning account. FAITHFUL CHAMPION (6) is a seven-start maiden who finished eighth at his most recent outing over 5f at Albury. Among the top chances in what looks a most suitable race. DOWNTOWN'S ABBEY (8) is a first-starter by Pariah out of Downtown Manhattan. Didn’t do a lot in most recent trial. Looks set to run well. FORBIDDEN TYCOON (7) was out of the money on debut two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 6f at Moruya, beaten 3 lengths into fifth after being prominent at the corner. Finds an easier assignment and can find winning form.
