Winx has firmed into equal fave with Criterion

..early tip..fawkner..each way..$15
..runner-up last year..doing well this time in

Godolphin trainer John O’Shea has confirmed that Contributer will bypass this race for the Mackinnon
O'Shea happy with the chances of Hartnell 16/1 & Complacent 25/1
Hartnell got home well in the Turnbull, first start in Melbourne, has also raced on the pace, some races previously
Complacent yet to run in Melbourne should be suited by Moonee Valley (races on the pace)
