POST IMPRESSIONIST (2) is yet to fill a placing in two runs since resuming from a lay-off, the latest when sixth over 1m4 1/2f in the G3 Archer Stakes at Flemington. Will strip fitter and can find winning form this time. WHISKY ON THE HILL (5) brings the right form to the table after taking out a 1m4f contest at Mornington last time out by a neck. Has a sound record here with two wins and a placing from five starts. Leading contender. BRAYDEN STAR (8) gave a sight here last time, leading until late before finishing fifth and beaten 5 lengths over 1m2f. Measures up nicely on best figures and has the blinkers removed. Worth keeping safe. SMOKIN' ROMANS (1) gave a sight here last time, leading until claimed in the straight and finishing ninth, beaten 5. 5 lengths, over 1m1f. Strong record with Ben Melham aboard, including two wins. Deserves respect.
