Moderate tempo expected with Now East likely to find the front over Musical Sunset and Radiant Knight. COSMIC INTERLUDE (7) missed the start and never looked likely first-up when resuming in town. Was well supported then, is definitely worth another chance. Gets in light with the claim and can improve sharply. RADIANT KNIGHT (2) wasn't far away fresh when closing off well into the placings. Is sure to have come on from that and is worth following up. NOW EAST (1) wasn't far away fresh then was DQ'd last time after an administration issue - complete forgive. Peaking now third-up and can play a major role. UNCLOTHED (10) was denied by the barest of margins from getting off the mark last time at Oakbank. Strips rock-hard fit on the quick back-up and is among the main chances. VAMORE (3) is relatively lightly raced to the rest and strips fitter for a trial. Keeping safe. SUGGESTED PLAY: Giving Cosmic Interlude another chance.
