BILLY THE KID (2) has been competitive of late and kept the ball rolling last time when 9 metres from the winner in fourth over 2200m at Alexandra Park. No excuses from this advantageous draw. Has the ability to take this out. OHOKA ACHILLES (1) drew wide last start and was never a genuine threat, beaten 22 metres into fifth at this track over 2700m. Steps up a level, but from this better draw, he is up to the task. STELLA MARIS (4) must be considered after she finished third over 2700m at this track two weeks ago. AQUILA (3) is the next elect off a last-start win by 3 metres at this track over 2200m. Go again.
