5. Espionage appears to be like to have been too closely penalised in early betting on account of his large gate. Given how shortly he mustered first up within the Silver Slipper Stakes, the son of Zoustar may be capable to get himself exterior of the probably chief 3. Straight Cost. It’s recreation on if that’s the case. Don’t count on Nash Rawiller to take a backward step early. Espionage might want to flip the tables on his stablemate second up however he raced keenly within the early phases after being restrained to seek out cowl but was chipping away late. His closing splits had been the quickest throughout the assembly. Nicely positioned to enhance out to 1200m. 6. Switzerland wasn’t as spectacular within the Pierro Plate because the quinella within the Silver Slipper however you get the impression that there’s extra to come back.

Race 6 – 3.25PM HYLAND RACE COLOURS CHALLENGE STAKES GROUP 2 (1000m)
6. Passive Aggressive gained this race 12 months in the past at the same value and this yr’s version isn’t any tougher. There’s no Eduardo or Giga Kick and they’re the 2 sprinters that crammed the minors behind her. The gamble is that she is 44 weeks between runs, having didn’t get in foal so her profession as a broodmare was put again one other season.

Seems the chief and is a confirmed 1000m horse. 3. Remarque was effectively held by Passive Aggressive within the Problem Stakes final yr however he was second up. Tackles the race contemporary and his first-up stats learn 6:4-0-1. He too has a helpful document over 1000m and will land on the again of the velocity.

Race 7 – 4PM JAMES SQUIRE CANTERBURY STAKES (1300m)
1. Suppose About It is the perfect horse within the race.

The five-year-old has executed all the pieces required of him in his two trials, suggesting that he has returned at the very least in addition to final marketing campaign. The caveat is that this marketing campaign he isn’t being skilled to peak second up over 1200m. There are Doncasters and Queen Elizabeths on the agenda. It’s his willpower which consistently will get him over the road, a top quality that’s laborious to quantify. 6. Espiona swerves the G1 Newmarket to run right here. Her first-up run within the Lightning Stakes over an unsuitable 1000m in an unsuitably slowly run race was excellent. She ran Imperatriz and Non-public Eye to lower than a size.

Race 8 – 4.35PM THE AGENCY RANDWICK GUINEAS (1600m)
3. Celestial Legend put a niche on his rivals within the Hobartville Stakes out to 1400m for the primary time. He acquired to the suitable a part of the monitor, granted, however it’s laborious to make a case for something from that race to show the tables given his late dominance. His final 200m cut up was over a length-and-a-half sooner than the following finest. That screams that the son of Dundeel with relish a mile now, as does his pedigree. He exploded to document a brand new peak final begin and he units as much as enhance once more. The case for 1. Militarize is clear and he’s entitled to be favorite. His kind is extra uncovered than Celestial Legend however splitting Fangirl and Suppose It Over at WFA first up reads as an exceptionally robust kind reference for this. It’s been the plan all alongside to deal with the Guineas second up. He attracts completely.

Race 9 – 5:15PM MOSTYNCOPPER ASPIRATION QUALITY (1600m)
4. Lekvarte is in profession finest kind. The five-year-old gray gained three on the bounce as she labored her approach via the grades, culminating in a Belle Of The Turf win at Gosford. She reappeared six weeks later within the G2 Millie Fox Stakes and regardless of working fifth, she rattled dwelling within the fifth quickest final 600m cut up throughout the assembly. That race had much more depth than this. Out to the mile is ideal, as is the prospect of a drier monitor. 1. Thalassophile gained this race narrowly final yr.
