Six of the nine come from the all conquering Waller stable, a worrying prospect for punters. With most jockeys getting their orders from the same source, who knows how the race will play out (apart from the Kiwi magician himself). The mares bring good form-lines to the event, especially Waller's Forever Crazy and Saigon Tea. Ron Quinton's Intimate Moment would be a big threat at her best, but she doesn't seem to be quite there this preparation and hasn't shone in the parade ring. Of the boys, Grand Marshall has the best form, but he may lack the power to sprint if the tempo is Slow, while Campanology fits in quite well at the weights. The biggest chance of an Aussie disruption to the Kiwi party comes from Barge and Charge, who you know ill be hard fit and ready to go from the Cummings stable. It takes a brave man or woman to back the 'away team' here though.
