SIR POLO (1) Came in 3rd last start at this venue and proven performer at this distance. Great to see jockey R Sousa taking the ride. Tracking very well this preparation. Respect. PHILAU (3) Was first to greet the judge when winning last run around here. Vaclav Janacek has been successful previously. Can go on with it. SANBER (2) Fresh from a break. Was competitive when 2nd last run at the track and has a good draw. Likely to be well placed early. Keep in mind. PARTY ZONE (5) Disappointing display when 8th last start here. Include in chances.

Jumped at $11.00 and not up to scratch when 7th last start at the track. The large claim from D Rodriguez helps. Looks highly doubtful.
