Genuine pace with Road To The City and Took Gardner showing out along with Mr Ribtickler working over. LOVE KAYE (10) caught the eye first-up when rattling home to just miss at Balaklava. Is sure to have come on from that and is drawn much kinder this time. Expecting her to relish the rise to 1400m.TOOK GARDNER (8) has been good in his first two starts when finishing second. The form around him has been holding up and he should be at his top now. POLAR EYES (12) is knocking on the door and finds a good race to put it all together. Draws to get a cosy run and a big run is on the cards. MOUNTAIN DEVIL (11) couldn't go on with the job in his first outing when sitting on speed. Better now but sticky draw. PAGANINI (3) is proving frustrating but has peaks that measure up. Not dismissing completely. SUGGESTED PLAY: Love Kaye to win.
