KING ZEPHYR (18) was well-fancied when resuming last start but could only manage sixth, beaten 6 lengths, over 6f at this track. Has a perfect second up record from two starts. Can break through here. WROTE TO ARATAKI (7) continues to race well with a win in a in the G3 Geoffrey Bellmaine Stakes at this track before finishing half a length away in third last time over 7f in the G3 Frances Tressady Stakes at Flemington. Dean Yendall who has three wins when partnering stays on. Likely to feature. PERSIAN SPIRIT (6) ran below expectations last time in the G3 Shaftesbury Avenue Handicap at Flemington over 7f, finishing fourth and beaten 3 lengths. Has a solid record at this journey with three wins from eight starts and shapes as a key runner. CAFE MILLENIUM (2) started at 11/4 last time but could only manage fifth, beaten 3 lengths, at Flemington over 7f. Gets back but will wind up late. Will be doing his best work late.
