|---|---|---|---|---|

Good early pressure anticipated with a large representation of first starters. ROCCO'S PEACE (1) finished third, beaten 4 lengths, when resuming from a spell last start over 1400m at this track. Nice return and fitter again. Nicely placed to go a couple better. DIAVAL (2) is a three-year-old gelding facing the starter for the first time. By leading sire Master Of My Fate out of Group 3 winner Maleficent. Should be there at the finish. XIPHOS (4) didn't make an impact at his last run before going for a spell on April 26, finishing seventh and beaten 7 lengths over 1400m at this track. One to consider. BELLO GALLICO (9) is a three-year-old gelding on debut from the stable of Glen Kotzen. By Vercingetorix from Hanabi. Pay to watch for any positive betting moves.
