GRAND OMAHA (8) showed good early speed then led into the straight when fresh from a lay-off last start before fighting on to finish third, beaten a long neck, over 7f at Pakenham. Sure to go well. ALL BUSINESS (5) started at 5/1 last time and ran below expectations, finishing sixth and beaten 4. 5 lengths at Sandown-Hillside over 7f. Worth noting Luke Cartwright goes aboard. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run this time. VIANARRA (7) ran a bold race over this journey last start, racing on the pace and sticking on strongly to finish 0. 8 lengths away in second at this track. Craig Newitt gets the best out of this four-year-old gelding. Ready to go one better. CROWN CRUSHER (6) finished fourth last time out over 7½f at this track, beaten 1. 5 lengths. Has a win and two placings at this journey from six starts. This sets up nicely.
