QUEENS SON (4) Tidy effort when 3rd last run at this venue and showing consistent performance in races. Looking sharp on the track since resuming from a spell. Makes it very hard to bet against. COPPI (2) Finished 5th last start at this venue. Should improve here and drawn beautifully. Expect to go close. SADDLE UP (5) Amongst the placegetters when 2nd last time here. Might take a while to wind up but should be hitting top gear in the straight. Can't knock. HELBAR (3) Fresh after a break. Unsighted last run at Milano but stepping up in trip. Gains the services of jockey Gab Agus. Chance.

Comments

On a short turnaround. At $101.00 ran 5th last time at this venue but gets a favourable draw. Should muster plenty of early speed. Going over extra ground. Needs a mighty effort to win this.

Back after a spell. Towards the tail last run at Milano but racing over extra ground. Jockey Gab Agus rates highly aboard. Can't back with any confidence.
