Apparently Lachlan River is in & Fight Your Corner is out.

Adds a bit more spice.

I'm hoping there might be some genuine pace on. With two known one-pacers (Mummify & Plastered) drawn wide, they may have no option but to roll forward. I seriously doubt either can win by taking a sit. If one of the imports is a front-runner, it could be a closer's race.

I'm might be leaning towards Sir Dex. Vastly improved this year. I initially thought his first-up win was flukey, but now has enough good runs in the strongest company this prep as proof positive. Has always shown ability really.
