Betty, I agree with you about the short prices for favourites. Obviously they are the ones to beat, but in this sort of race where I'm struggling to choose between two or threee short ones (plus I have Defier double with Polar Success at $61 so no need to back again), I'm going to take several longer priced shots, and Defier wins then I will be very happy anyway, and if Lohnro wins (and probably will) won't shed too many tears. Still on a high after Slipper.

This way I can cheer a for a few horses in the race and my outlay will be much smaller. I'm going to back e/w -

Scenic Peak
Shogun Lodge
Purple Groove
Grand Armee
Gentle Genius

Good luck to all having a go,
Cheers,
Cosmo
