Unriddle to go to the lead at a genuine tempo. BLANKFIELD (7) goes on top after an encouraging debut here over 1200m when sneaking up the inside late to grab second. This doesn't look any easier but he should be better for the run and suited by the extra 100m. KINGTONDO (13) is a gelding by Flying Artie on debut for the Freedman yard, out of a handy producing dam. He's won a jumpout leading into this and draws soft for John Allen. Keeping safe. ANIMAL (1) wasn't beaten far first up here over 1000m when working home into a narrow fifth. This is his first foray past that trip but it should suit now, he'll just need a good ride from the draw. UNRIDDLE (6) has had plenty of chances as a 25 start maiden but is going well and should be competitive once more. THEOLOGY (8) is a gelding by Yulong Prince on debut for the Griffiths yard who can acquit himself well. SUGGESTED PLAY: Blankfield to win.
