Blitzen City should lead but there are a few other speedy types who can keep him honest. BLITZEN CITY (5) raced on the speed and found plenty to score dominantly at this track and distance last time out to build on a solid first-up result. Ideally placed and is sure to prove tough to beat again. ISE BAY (1) showed good pace and went on to score by 1.5 lengths last time out here. Should enjoy a good run just off the speed. Taking on a better line-up this time but he cannot be underestimated. KAWAKITA MAX (2) is experiencing a long win drought, extended last start when eighth after being in contention on the bend. Well placed and there is no reason she cannot return to winning ways. BELLAGIO UMAMUSUKO (6) showed good early speed and raced on the pace last start before fading to finish fourth. Worth including.
