Quite keen on NADAL (2) here. He was something licked in this race last year when held up badly, showing his ability with a huge win in a $1million race at Cranbourne next time out. He was returning from an injury in the G2 Caulfield Sprint and ran quite well, getting back and looming up as some hope before fitness gave out late. Love the wide draw and 1200m on a track with some give in it. If he's anywhere near his best, he'll go awfully close. FRONT PAGE (1) tried hard as usual in The Kosciuszko first up with 60kg. He's getting on in age and typically goes better fresh but he was excellent for second in this race last year. KING OF ROSEAU (3) resumes havign won the G3 Aurie's Star before a spell over this route. He's up to this. BIG SWINGER (15) is lightly raced and has been heavily backed in some handy races, wary of his ceiling. VESTAS (14) has been excellent from the back in two runs this preparation, this looks the right race for her to peak.
