Comments: Apache Cat was terrific first up and is obviously a huge chance again. Let Go Thommo was also good last time, though this field is harder. Dance Hero leads them clearly and it's worth remembering that he nearly knocked off Takeover Target first up given he's coming off a 56 day break. He ran 2nd to Miss Andretti first up over this course 18 months ago in track record time so he's going to either be in the finish or flop out the back, which seems to be his form pattern these days. Monet Rules looks like he gets a drag along behind Dance Hero and he's going to be a great e/w chance at odds. Flash Trick has steamed home into 3rd spot first up at his last two runs, albeit in easier company, so I'd stick him in trifectas.
