Leaving Las Vegas has been ultra-consistent in three career starts, placing every time and facing better opposition at metro tracks.

Her metro form reads far better than anything else here, and this setup looks her race to lose.
Ran a cracking second at Yarra Valley last start, staying on strongly and indicating improvement was on the cards. Fitness is key here, and the Hawkes-trained gelding gets a sweet draw to sit just off the speed. The slightly longer trip is perfect for his style, and with natural progression, he should be right in the finish.
Regal Might is a tough and honest galloper who resumed with a gutsy win at Mornington in a Class 1 event. He’s two-for-two on good ground, which bodes well for the surface today, and his ability to sit forward or control from the lead makes him versatile. With an apprentice’s 1.5kg claim, he carries weight well and has every chance to notch back-to-back wins.
Comes off a determined first-up win at Stawell where he powered through a tough run. He’s proven over this distance, with three wins at 1100m, and the step up in class isn ’t a concern given his solid career strike rate. With his preferred dry conditions and a strong early pace to sit behind, he could outstay them late if things fall into place.
