HARD TO CROSS (7) stepped up in trip to 1m1f last time at Sandown-Hillside and ran below his best, finishing 5 lengths away in seventh. Goes well at this shorter journey so should prove tough to beat. MOLLY BLOOM (5) turned in a sound effort last time but found a couple better in the G2 Stocks Stakes at Moonee Valley over 7½f, beaten 1. 1 lengths. That run should have her rock-hard fit now. Best form puts her right in this. CHARTERHOUSE (2) was unwanted in betting last time but scored by a neck over 1m1f at Sandown-Hillside. Among the main hopes. COTE ATLANTIQUE (6) is coming off a last-start fourth, beaten 2. 5 lengths, over 7½f at Sandown-Hillside. Major player.
