We have a thread for the Group 1's and Listed so I guess we should also cover the Group 2's & 3's...

1 ROMAN ARCH Robbie Laing N Callow 14 58
2 MAHTOUM Kim Waugh J Ford 9 58
3 ABOVE DECK Jim Conlan M J Zahra 10 58
4 RECLAIM Bill Naoum B Pengelly 2 58
5 CLASSIC KARLA Bryan Guy J Taylor 5 58
6 DEVASTATING (NZ) John Collins J Byrne 7 58
7 PICABLU Trevor Whittington M J Cahill 6 58
8 IKE'S DREAM John Hawkes D Beadman 13 55.5
9 VOUVRAY (NZ) Peter G Moody L Nolen 1 55.5
10 SERENOTE Stewart Mackinnon D Browne 3 55.5
11 VILLA BLED Clarry Conners G Colless 11 55.5
12 CINQUE CENTO Tony Wildman D Beasley 12 55.5
13 DON'T TELL CLANG Shaun Dwyer K Wharton 4 55.5
14 OCTAPUSSY John Hawkes R McMahon (a) 8 55.5

Should be plenty of speed with Picablu the likely leader...from Above Deck, Mahtoum, Reclaim, Villa Bled & Don’t Tell Clang who all usually race on pace.

On assumption Beadman could have ridden either Octapussy or Ike’s Dream and has elected to ride the latter, I’ll make IKE'S DREAM my top selection.

Very impressive was Octapussy last start!! My top selection Beadman or not!
