WALSH BAY (6) got up in the last stride to win on debut by a short head in a heavy track here 12 days ago. She is backing up fairly quickly for her second start which is normally a very good sign. The step up to 1350 metres won't be an issue and she can double the dose. AGE OF AQUARIUS (1) worked hard to find the front last start and gave a good kick on the home turn before being claimed late and running second. He might try similar tactics here and could take them all the way this time. MISHANI ECLIPSE (3) will be peaking third up and he will find this easier than any of his first 2 starts this prep. He has a good draw and is ready to put his best hoof forward at this level. STAPLETON (5) finished third on debut last start at this track and is likely to improve on that here. Drawn inside barrier and watch for any market moves.
