5f 212y
Going: Standard
Surface: Polytrack
Draw Advantage: NoneThe shorter 1200m may suit FIRE TONIC who just barely lasted 1400m in his penultimate. He was beaten as short odds favourite then on the poly. COTTON RON found FIRE TONIC's stable mate Captain Rocket too good last time. After finishing second best he can go one better. Filly VIVIR MI VIDA did a bit much when returning to the poly last time. She can improve on that. MASTER OF DEFENSE has also run well on the poly and could be a better horse over the sprint distance. OLYMPIC STANDARD carries a light weight and has shown potential, so can upset.
