Piastri, a progressive three-year-old in his seventh start for Ciaron Maher, has returned well this prep.
The Choisir gelding won his second race first-up at Sale with a strong final 100m.
He ran well at Caulfield two weeks ago, finishing just over two lengths behind the smart Marble Nine from a tough barrier, which he’ll face again on Saturday.
The smart four-year-old won the Sir John Monash Stakes by seven lengths and has already defeated key rivals, including Mrs Chrissie.
With Blake Shinn aboard from a perfect barrier and following a strong recent win, this son of Shalaa is hitting top form.
Jimmy The Bear, fresh off a Mildura Cup win, could race with renewed confidence.
Trainer Patrick Payne’s quick turnaround is notable, and despite occasional frustrations, his strong Caulfield record and return to a mile are positives.
