Kaluakoi is likely to take charge and set a decent tempo. One for the stayers. CONNECTICUT (4) goes well for hoop Bayliss who has two wins and four placings from just eight steers and will be high on confidence following that last-start win here. Drawn to get all the favours from the inside alley and should be right there when the whips are cracking. Former Victorian KALUAKOI (6) has been in the mix in all four runs since joining the new stable and will be at peak fitness for this. Only needs some luck navigating from the sticky draw to feature in the finish. KIRKEBY (2) has handy form over this mile and a half journey and may earn some minor money. LA COMETA (5) rounds out the selections. SUGGESTED PLAY: Siding with Connecticut.
