MICKEY'S MEDAL (7) is racing quickly through his grades and gets the right setup for this as he chases his third straight win. Braith Nock sticks after having the race parceled up inside the 150m when saluting over 1500m here. Hard to hold out with the 54.5kg. GREEN SHADOWS (1) has a decent win in him this preparation and on the quick back-up. Rattled home late from the outside gate when a solid sixth over 1400m in the LR Civic Stakes at Randwick last Saturday. Extra trip in his favour with McMurray's 3kg claim. THUNDERLIPS (2) was ridden a treat by Anna Roper from the wide gate when squeezing between runners to get over the top of them at Randwick over 1400m. Proven in this and no excuses from the draw. SIR ARTIE (3) returned from a lengthy break with a slashing second over 1350m at Doomben in a solid rating contest. Only has to repeat that effort to take a hand in the finish. FURIOUS (9) failed to stretch out in the heavy going when ninth over 1500m here at latest. Keep safe.
