Gorbachev and Highland Eightgee have the pace to take up the running at a solid tempo. GORBACHEV (5) closed well to just miss over 1000m here on debut then used the inside draw to lead at Kembla last time where he was nailed on the line over 1200m. Promising gelding who should have no trouble with the longer trip and will be tough to catch. SUPERHERO (7) was hard to miss first-up over 1300m at Warwick Farm where he stormed home from near the tail to miss by the narrowest of margins. Useful colt who is perfectly placed to open his account. HIGHLAND EIGHTGEE (1) had every chance but didn't find the turn of foot required when unplaced here over 1300m last time out. Gets a cheap run from gate one and should have plenty to offer. BANXI (2) worked home fairly without threatening on debut recently over 1200m at Kembla. Can improve out to this trip. CALIFORNIA BLUES (3) has been safely held in two runs this prep but might need seven furlongs now. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Gorbachev.
