Persan is right there as is Le Don De Vie in the 2021 Easter Cup (2000m) at Caulfield on Saturday.

2021 EASTER CUP – RACE ANALYSIS AND TIPS

Not a lot of obvious pace. Likely to see Le Don De Vie right up there. Perhaps Persan and/or Hang Man press across from out wide. PERSAN (2) did a terrific job to score first up from a break and he can only be fitter for that. Must be respected again though the barrier does him no favours.

LE DON DE VIE (5) looks like landing in the first couple without a lot of pressure and under the top jock he must take plenty of catching. Did enough fresh and far better suited out to this trip. PLATOON (7) is racing well enough to win a race like this and must be a threat.

HANG MAN (9) comes off a win and while this is tougher he has a hope again. AMADE (8) is very interesting. Long break but a G1 winner last time and no doubt good enough to win here at his best. Blinkers are on and it would hardly shock if he ran a big race.
