COAL CRUSHER the expected leader from an inside barrier with DAJRAAN and MILITARY EXPERT both capable of getting on-pace too first-up. MAZU (wide from 600m, bias against) and KING OF SPARTA (stuck very wide) had excuses last start and are the class runners that look well suited here. A big watch on fresh horses DAJRAAN and MILITARY EXPERT off impressive trial wins. COAL CRUSHER, FAR TOO EASY, OPAL RIDGE and roughie SINAWAAN (had excuses first-up) are the knock-out hopes.
