VRC ST LEGER
Onto the St Leger. DEAL DONE FAST (1) clearly brings the best form lines to this. He's contested G1 races in Sydney his past two and wasn't disgraced in the ATC Derby latest when eighth to Green Spaces when getting back to last. 2800m at Flemington looks ideal and if he can just hold a spot early he's the one to beat. SILVASISTA (16) looks the danger. She won well over 2200m at Donald last start and they ran good time, hence the early support. Plenty have won this race off worse lead in runs than a Donald win and she did measure up well in a good race three back at Caulfield, albeit over 1600m. ERUPT (13) is possibly the blowout. He's a maiden of two starts but went 1600-2550m last start and got home well for second. He looks an out-and-out stayer and one for the quaddie. CROWN OF RUSSIA (6) stuck on well under a big weight last time and had been about the mark this level last campaign. He might get map favours on speed. DAD AND DAVE (2) is going okay and should stay it well.
