REGAL LION (2) wasn't disgraced in city class last time when finishing sixth at Caulfield. Will find this much easier. Among the leading chances in this company. PITTSBURGH PIRATE (1) settled well back then came home powerfully to score by half a length over 1m2 1/2f at Horsham last time out. Neil Farley who has scored on him six times retains the mount. Leading contender. STAUNCH (6) drifted well back last start before storming home to score by 1. 3 lengths over 1m1 1/4f at Avoca. Winning hope here. SHAHZAD (3) settled well back and failed to come on last start when tenth over 1m1/2f at Caulfield at his first run back from a break. Worth noting his second up record is strong. Should be in the finish. Can feature with the right run.
