Tricky and the betting moves will inform. PENROSE (6) sets the standard, presenting fitter off a narrow defeat at Albury over 900m where she led. Draws perfectly and is sure to take plenty of catching. Wary of EXTRIO (7), who has switched to the local Pepper yard on a 150-day return. Trialled like a cracker before disappointing as a $1.90F at Newcastle and was immediately tipped out. Has an in-form rider booked and no surprise to see her wound right up for 'Cup day'. STAKEHOLDER (3) debuts for a top Sydney stable and has shown plenty at the trials. The gate is a bit awkward, but expect the son of Capitalist to be good enough to manage. FLYING CORSAIR (1) debuts and was close up in his latest Canberra trial. Has the inside barrier and Heywood's engagement interests. SKIBIDI (2) is another local on debut and has also trialled well enough to consider.
