Genuine tempo with Dreamdeel to lead but under plenty of pressure in a keen early contest. KARMAZONE (5) has produced much better at his past two outings when settling well back over similar trips. Rock hard fit and best form would take this out. Serious claims. CHATEAUX PARK (4) didn't have a lot of luck in latest effort and should appreciate the bigger track. Consistent galloper who handles all conditions. DREAMDEEL (2) backs up quickly off a brave runner-up effort at this venue last week. Puts himself into the race from the get-go and fitness no issue. Close to a win now at a suitable trip. MCGEEHAN (3) is mixing his form of late but does drop back in grade off latest city contest. Looks set to peak after three runs back in a suitable grade of race. SUGGESTED PLAY: Karmazone each-way.
