A hot tempo is expected with plenty of speed engaged. CALADAN (7) will be sitting right up on the speed as he has done twice and prove tough to get by. Won't have to work as hard this time though. Gets the added fitness too. DAPPER DON (8) led and was run down late first up. He went to town for his next outing and just found it too hard. Barrier hurts a bit now. PIRATE (5) probably kicks up here as well. He has been in the market at all his recent outings. COCKALEECHIE KID (2) was back in the field and couldn't get into his debut race. The gelding has trialled well enough since. LIGHT THE NIGHT (11) is from a strong stable so must be a watch for any moves. SUGGESTED PLAY: Not a strong race. The well drawn Caladan has to run well.
