BARAQIEL (7) scored by 1.3 lengths over this distance in the LR Carlyon Stakes at this track last time out when returning from a break. Unbeaten here in three starts. Sure to run well. QUEMAN (5) resumed over 6f in the G3 Behemoth Stakes at Morphettville last time out and showed good speed to lead throughout, scoring by a neck. Strong performer at this stage of the prep with three wins and zero minor placings from three appearances. Tougher assignment this time but he is expected to run well. OAK HILL (9) finished fifth over this distance, beaten 2.5 lengths, at his latest outing. Form over this journey is strong, boasting six wins from 10 starts. Takes on tougher opposition this time but he should be very competitive. GOLDEN BOOM (4) gave a bold display over this course and distance when resuming last start, racing on the speed and boxing on well to finish third and beaten 1.5 lengths. Stepping up a level this time but on his best form he is capable of testing his rivals.
