SUN BALKAN (1) was in control from the outset to score as favourite on debut over 1400m at this track two-and-a-half weeks ago. Likely improver who should run well again. SHIGE KING (3) was in control from the outset to score as favourite on debut over 1400m at this track two-and-a-half weeks ago. Promising type who can go back-to-back. BUEN DIA (4) scored last start at this track to make it two wins from two starts this campaign. Has the pace to settle in the leading division. Will be in this for a long way. LOW NON BARD (5) pushed forward last time and boxed on to finish third over 1400m at this track. Must be respected.

Raced twice to date. When well in the market at debut, tried to lead throughout but was claimed late 2nd in a small field at this track on May 15 over 900m, 0.8 len behind Buen Dia with 54kg at $1.20. Second-up led but faded 3rd of 12 at this track on June 15 over 1400m, 2.5 len behind Buen Dia with 54kg at $3.40. Ready to run a big race.

Was well-supported at debut, 2nd in a small field at this track on June 19 over 900m, 8 len behind Indy Gold with 54kg at $2. Not likely to find this quite as easy as the debut outing.
