Racenet's Speedmaps spokesman Greg Polson said the race will be run at a solid tempo with a few on-pace runners engaged in the three-year-old handicap.

"It's only a relatively small field but there is enough pace engaged to expect a genuine tempo," Polson said.

"Siege Of Quebec comes back in distance but has led at each of his two starts so he'll kick-up off the inside gate.

"Perast is a speedy colt drawn the outside so he'll fire across whilst Menari will be splitting that pair and keeping them honest."

Corporate bookie Ladbrokes is offering $2.90 for the joint favourites Menari and Siege Of Quebec with $5 on offer about next in line Trekking. Diamond Tathagata is fourth on order of betting at $10 with the remainder of the field all in double-figures.

"The ratings have the race a lot more open than the market would suggest so there is an opportunity to find some value," Racenet form analyst Cameron Happ said.

"We have rated Menari on top at $4 with Siege Of Quebec and Trekking snapping at his heels – rated at $4.90.

"But there isn't much value among the favoured trio. You could find some marginal value with Trekking but the big overs rests with Diamond Tathagata.

"We've rated Mark Newnham's colt a $6.90 chance but Ladbrokes are offering $10 and if you lock in with the Odds Boost you can get a couple of points better again."
