Solid tempo with Starzam possessing enough dash to find the front. HEBEL (2) continues to race well, the latest trying to lead throughout this course and distance before finding one better. Expected to take catching again. ANSON BAY (1) has had two starts in this area for the new yard and both times was runner-up, beaten less than a length. Expected to go close again. HOTIM ENGLISH (4) was fourth here fresh then came from well back for a well-held fifth last time. Likely improver who can do much better here. STARZAM (3) is a former NSW galloper having his first run for a new yard and does go well fresh. Watch the market closely. YAKI ISHI (7) goes well at this course and distance and can run into the finish. SUGGESTED PLAY: Stick with Hebel.
