Hallings Comet might be 11, but he retains plenty of enthusiasm for the game and he's bound to give this a good go from the front. He digs in at the business end of the race too, and if the others let him have his own way, could be hard to pass around this tight track. PAGERO has the potential to leave this grade behind as the season progresses and if fit on his reappearance today, looks the one to beat after a progressive year. Roar will travel well in behind horses and should have his chance late on if the selection fails to fire.
