The rail will be in its true position, with the first race scheduled to jump at 12:30pm AEDT.
Seymour Cup tip: Caste
Caste was one of the unlucky runners in the Group 2 Rose Of Kingston Stakes over 1400m last Saturday, when the Ben, Will & JD Hayes-trained mare went over the line untested. This daughter of Sir Prancealot settled midfield and tried to take three runs in the final 400m; however, she never saw daylight and never got into clear air to run on. With this girl on the quick backup, expect Patrick Moloney to settle near the rear of the field before peeling wide on the home turn to allow Caste to finish off strongly.

Best Bet at Seymour: Jammin Jimmy
Jammin Jimmy will return for his second racing preparation for Mitchell Freedman, where the lightly raced five-year-old gelding will seek to break his maiden at the third time of asking. The son of Jimmy Creed was last seen finishing third behind Umetini at Sandown on February 28, which was a much tougher contest than the one he will strike on Sunday. The booking of Damian Lane signals intent from the stable, and if he can settle behind the speed, Jammin Jimmy should prove too classy for this lot.

Next Best at Seymour: El Paso
Michael, Wayne & John Hawkes will combine with Koby Jennings for the second straight start as he gets back aboard El Paso in his fourth career start. Previously, this three-year-old colt was held up slightly on the home turn before getting clear late to chase down subsequent Listed winner Keeneland at Benalla over 1600m. This son of Dundeel enjoyed stepping up to the mile last start, and he showed a blistering turn of foot when he got clear. If El Paso can settle in the first five or six, he will prove hard to hold out late.
