The speedy Richanco should find the front with Miss Esprit and Solar System on his heels. RICHANCO (5) was very impressive in his maiden campaign. It took a Listed winner to beat him at his final run prior to the spell, and he looks to have returned in fine fettle judging by his recent trial. He has plenty of class and he should make light work of these if he can pick up where he left off. MIA GUSTO (7) is hard to knock on recent form, performing well in Saturday grade most recently, beaten just 4.2L. She hasn't won for a while, but she is knocking on the door of late and if she can hold her form back in grade, she'll go close. SOLAR SYSTEM (11) resumed on a strong note, missing out by just 0.4L as favourite at Belmont. He is a second-up winner in the past and he has the speed to offset a wide alley. Can put his best foot forward. TON OF GRUNT (6) progressed through the grades nicely last campaign and is worth keeping onside as he'll be flashing late. BLEECKER STREET (2) has trialled nicely since running here in July and is worth including. SUGGESTED PLAY: Keen on Richanco.

Took a smart one to beat him at the end of last campaign and he can kick off in winning form.	2 CHRIS PARNHAM
