Little early speed on offer so Chief Of Staff should be prominent. BELLA MONTAGNA (5) was group placed in NZ and resumes for a new camp off two trials. In the on pace role looks hard to beat. BANXI (1) has used mixed tactics in two recent runs but finds a much kinder draw. Can find best form in this line-up. CHIEF OF STAFF (3) drops back in trip but has been thereabouts in all three outings. Kind draw is a bonus and can go on with it. REVERBERATES (9) showed improvement last start. Place chance in this suitable assignment. SUGGESTED PLAY: Bella Montagna win.
