Would expect Black Vanquish to push forward again today with Canelo and Ballinaclash handy. There was a lot to like about the first up run of BLACK VANQUISH who battled on well for fourth behind Lord Barrington. Eased down and late and pulled up distressed on that occasion but off a freshen up today looks a strong chance. Black Vanquish should be positive early and has the speed to lead or contest the lead at this level. Ballinaclash will be up there as will Canelo. Expecting a strong tempo. BLACK VANQUISH was sound first up off a long break and have to think that he is back on track now after things never really worked out for him last season. He has the talent to win better races than this and have to think that he is a terrific chance of winning today. BALLINACLASH broke through at Moonee Valley last time and did it well enough to think that he has a hope again. BUT IT'S TRUE resumes here with big upside. No doubt he will be better for the run but expecting a forward showing. Has talent. Canelo has been consistent and has to be respected. SUGGESTED PLAY: Black Vanquish off a freshen up for the win.
