There should be a bit of pressure with Oakfield Saturn and Eclair Encore pressing forward in advance of Bella Kathleen and Gorshin. ECLAIR ENCORE (1) is a promising filly whose first-up effort was solid in a race with good closing sectionals. With a well-used claim rates a strong chance of finding win number two. CASHBURN (8) looked much sharper second up rising in trip and faces a similar assignment here. Cops a drift back draw but all set to figure. TRAJECTILE (7) is suited in this type of grade despite being headed for longer trips. With two trials under her belt is a keep-safe inclusion. SEARCH WARRANT (5) has found his groove in two recent runs, including a maiden win last start. Slight fitness query after six weeks off but should be competitive. BELLA KATHLEEN (9) resumes interstate for a new stable with five weeks between runs. Place hope back in grade. SUGGESTED PLAY: Eclair Encore win.
