Debutant 2YO colt by Executive Caviar from Wild Cat, drawn the pole for Stephanie J Werder with Bernardo Grasso to drive. Barrier 1 gives him the right map to settle handy on debut. Keep safe from the inside draw.

Debutant colt by Quite Easy U.S. out of Give 'N Take U.S., drawn barrier 5 for trainer-driver Giuseppe Lubrano. Pedigree suggests trotting depth, and the stable has hands-on insight with the booking. Market and parade may guide, but an even showing first up would not surprise.

Second-up after a debut 5th of 7 at Charlottenlund over 2000m from gate 6, finishing behind Nassir Dust and Ninjago. Drops 360m in trip and keeps Ken Ecce, with one run of experience now under the belt. Can take a step forward with the sharper distance.
