Xaiambi to take charge ahead of Perilous Lass at a solid tempo. XAIAMBI (14) was only fair last start but her form prior reads well for this. She draws well, can put herself up on the speed and will look the winner at some stage. She's the top seed in an even race. BREAK THE TABOO (7) has been solid in both SA runs. A senior jockey jumps on board and she won't be far away from her peak third-up. MASTER CHARLIE (2) is better than his last start suggests so don't leave him out. PERILOUS LASS (8) can bounce back into the money on the seven-day back-up after fading on the heavy track, while RARAMURI (4) was good in two starts last campaign and can put in a bold run fresh. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Xaiambi each-way.
