A race that lacks early pressure. BELLABAMA (9) made considerable ground in the run home to finish second here last time out over 1400m, continuing her good form this time in. An extra 100m now is in her favour and she can break through. ROCK CATCHER (11) ran on strongly only to just miss as favourite last start over 1700m at Awapuni Synthetic in New Zealand. Comes across the ditch now off a let-up for the Eurell yard and is worth keeping safe. HAKUSAN (14) has not raced since his debut on March 25 over 1400m at Sandown-Lakeside when he finished seventh, beaten 6 lengths. Can improve this time around, watch the market. DUKE OF OMAN (5) turned in a nice run last time to finish second over 1217m at Moe. Still lightly raced and should be fitter again from a soft gate, consider. SUGGESTED PLAY: Bellabama on top.
