Exciting race with a line-up of emerging 3YOs. STIRRUP CUP (3) returns from Victoria and his best form from the Autumn carnival will win this. He's been kept up to the mark with a quiet jump out in between runs. DOBBINAIR (1) jumps sharply in trip from 1000m to 1540m and, while he's never won beyond 1100m, he boasts obvious quality and must be included. BRING FORTH (4) saluted for punters at $1.40 in maiden grade last time. This is harder but he's a progressive type and is drawn to get the favours. SHOWRUNNER (2) and BIG BRUTE (5) are others that are building nice profiles early in their careers and should both run well in this.
