Solid pace with Ballpark finding the front but it won't be a picnic with a few other speedy types engaged. BALLPARK (4) led from barrier rise to win his maiden last time out over 1400m at Kembla, also at his second appearance. Had plenty in reserve that day so the extra 200m should hold no fears. Can win again. SO LONG FAREWELL (2) has been beaten less than a length in each of his two runs so far this campaign. Has a sense of timing to him third up and rising to a mile. SHOTGUN BELLA (10) has been ultra consistent this campaign without winning. Is again expected to be thereabouts. LONGINUS (8) led for home but gave up very easily over 1400m at Kembla at his latest outing. Better than that and deserves another chance. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Ballpark.
