Plenty of pace from Fort Yukon and Madra Rua, with the added uncertainty of the several first starters engaged. Lots of these look likely to break through soon. UMZINGELI WENYATHI (13) is long overdue. Ran fourth on debut and in the four runs since then has placed each time, the latest when resuming over 1250m. Fitter and expected to go close. PROTECTOR OF PEACE (10) started big odds on debut but found the line nicely to place. Can only be improved and shouldn't be a maiden long. GALLIC KING (7) ran a close-up fifth on debut in the same race as Protector Of Peace. Also found the line hard and no surprise to see a big run. TOUCHED BY ANGELS (5) made debut last time as well and finished third in a three-way photo. Listed strongly late and will be tough to stop again.
