MICHELANGELO (4) settled back on debut last time out and battled on evenly to finish sixth over 6f at Canterbury. Sure to improve and can get off the mark this time. MATIAS (2) faced the starter for the first time and finished fifth last start at Canterbury over 6¼f, beaten 2 lengths. Expected to be very competitive. DAPHNES (8) hasn't raced since finishing fifth in the G3 Widden Stakes at Rosehill over 5½f five weeks ago. Kept ticking over with a recent trial at Hawkesbury. Worth plenty of thought. CROWN THE KING (1) turned in a better run last start at the second run of the prep, beaten 1.75 lengths into fourth over 6¼f at Canterbury. Finds a nice race and can atone.
