CARS BIG AS BARS was friendless in the betting on debut but defied that market drift to finish an encouraging second over 1000m and this extended trip should be more to her liking judged on that evidence. ZALTA STAR also filled the runner-up berth last time and, with further improvement, could fight out the finish. SUNFIRE, CYBER SPIRIT and BILINGUAL have the form and experience to make their presence felt. Watch the betting on well-bred newcomers GERBERA and WINDS OF GRACE.
