53 $8.50 1-Duke De Sessa (IRE) 52 6.3L 2:31.42 R110 The lightly raced Land Legend was impressive on his Australian debut last year, wining the ATC St Leger at Randwick. He was a strong Group 1 winner of The Metropolitan two starts back before racing fiercely and doing plenty wrong in the Caulfield Cup from an inside draw, sticking on well for third. He has a few lengths to find but should relish 3200m on the big track and has one of the world’s best jockeys in Zac Purton sticking aboard, who is far better suited drawing wider this time around.
