Noms in and looks like the gooduns have scared off the oppostion again, however this should be a case of quality over quantity - the barrier draw hs also opened up a few scenarios.

if they dont rate the speed perfectly,look out for SB swamping them late i say! hard to confidently pick the winner but nothing else can win or even run 1st 3,can they??
best bet looks a skinny quartet boxing them 3 with KTM in for 4th with lord baumay the flukers hope in case ktm doesnt butter up cost = $12 per unit...hmmm,dont even know if thats worth it :? might just back SB instead.
Fresh as a daisy.
Should be like DB sitting outside TT. His heart will be broken again.
I also agree SB is a real chance at upsetting these two and can't be forgotton at a much smaller weight difference this time to last time out against DV!
my thoughts also
will be interesting on saturday-who ever can beat DV will win the race.
SB would have been about 75% max for the last race at a guess(with a melb prep in mind i make this assumption and not having trialled prior),could say he would be close to 10% fitter this time,3.5kg discount at the weights is worth at least 2 lengths and the additional 100m suits him better.I think DV is a great horse dont get me wrong,have seen a few go over the top after 5 runs though.Alternatively have seen horses like vizard just keep on winning.
Will be interested to see what the prices are closer to race day,as good as he has been i dont think he is even close to a special myself....
gets a weight pull and is fitter but wont make a difference bigger fish to fry over east they wont want to be at 100% fitness just yet if they want to win some races eg the g1s
