Belle Shiny and Archie Tesoro to take up the running at a strong tempo. ARCHIE TESORO (10) continued a hot streak of form, winning at this course and distance last start to make it three straight since a spell. Hard to knock that form and is raced fit so looks tough to beat again. BELLE SHINY (6) looks close to a win after back-to-back placings. Was prominent from the outset when third at this course and distance last time out. Has a strong record here at this journey and has the gate speed to take up a forward position. Could break through. AIR GRIFFON (2) finished fifth at this track and distance at his last appearance 11 weeks ago but won here prior. Among the better hopes. GOLD SIRKA (4) progressed nicely last time out to finish just 1.5 lengths from the winner in second over 1300m at this track. Go well.
