RACE THREE
MAJESTIC SIMON (10) will need to overcome the 30m tape, but it is an impost he has been able to overcome before. Winning the McNeil Final when charging home to victory over this trip from this same mark 2 starts back, he made a costly error last time. With an ounce of luck, he can arrive here.
HAVANA MAGIC (6) shoots for a hat-trick of victories after wins at the longer 2647m and then last start at the 2138m. Sent forward to work in each of those runs, she was able to assume control last start and then hold on for a narrow victory. Needing to step it up another notch, she can make the rise.
LAVROS SEGIL (3) went to the pegs last start from his 10m tape and when seeing space in the stretch was attacking the line hard to get within a half-neck of the prize. Only 3m from MUSCULUS 3 starts back, he has podium claims again.
SKYLINE (8) has claimed the bronze at his past 2 starts, the latest when closing nicely to be 2m in arrears of the winner HAVANA MAGIC. Meeting her on level terms here after giving away 10m to her last start, he can feature.
SELECTIONS: MAJESTIC SIMON (10), HAVANA MAGIC (6), LAVROS SEGIL (3), SKYLINE (8)
