Verdict

COSMIC CRUSADER (7) looks the one to beat after two dominant victories during the winter season at Belmont. He was installed as Railway favourite following those efforts and his recent trial at Lark Hill was very impressive. Ran a superb figure last start and if he's anywhere near that level, he can win again. SEPTEMBER BORN (12) had support first-up off a long break just last week where he was beaten in a tight photo finish. On the quick turnaround today which is a slight query, though he's open to plenty of improvement with that run under his belt. Appears the main danger with his upside. WATCH ME ROCK (5) resumed in good order in the Eurythmic when only 0.9L away as the race favourite. This maps similarly and he's sure to put his best foot forward. BONJOY (6) wasn't beaten far in the Eurythmic when flashing late. Drawn better this time and won't be far away. LUVNWAR (9) is primed to run well with three trials under her belt. Can feature.

Third-up today and placed third-up previously. First-up 4th of 10 at Belmont Park in the LR Idyllic Prince on August 23 over 1300m, slow going 2.75 len behind Phanta with 59kg at $8.
