Solid tempo set by Scipio and Blue Tice. SKY OJI (7) is racing well. Did well to score at this track two runs ago, then last time finished third over 1600m here. Finds a suitable race and can figure in the finish again. SCIPIO (3) is a model of consistency with top-three finishes at his last four starts, most recently scoring over 1400m at this track. Leading contender. STAR SAND BEACH (1) continues to race well with a win two back here before finishing third last time over 1900m at this track. Has winning claims on best figures. MILAN MILAN (5) is close to breaking through after two consecutive placings, the latest coming when third over 1400m at this track. Well placed and in the mix.
