SHIKI (9) has been freshened since a safely held seventh in the LR Magic Millions 2yo Classic at Gold Coast over 6f five weeks ago. Holding the fitness judging by a recent trial win at Canterbury. Better than latest run suggests - makes plenty of appeal. STRETAN RULER (3) is a two-start maiden who resumed from a lay-off last start and was beaten 1. 75 lengths when fourth over 5½f in the G3 Blue Diamond Prelude (Colts & Geldings) at Caulfield. Among the leading chances with the run under his belt. HIDRIX (2) wasted no time getting off the mark on debut over 5½f in the G3 Canonbury Stakes at this track three weeks ago. Has upside and looks a key runner. INCOGNITO (1) resumed over 5½f in the G3 Canonbury Stakes at this track last start when he sat close to the speed before fading in the straight to finish fifth, beaten 3. 5 lengths. Goes up a notch this time but cannot be underestimated.
