Plenty of first starters engaged which makes it tricky to map, but we can assume a keen tempo. ESCARGOES (1) looked to have every chance as runner up last start but the winner looks a decent horse. Strong claims again slightly back in trip despite a testing draw. BELLEVUE (17) needs scratchings to get a run but recent trials have been up to the mark. Educated effort on the cards. BELLA WAHINE (8) by the sire Wootton Bassett and from the stakes-winning mare Little Surfer Girl. Ran fourth at recent trial. In the mix. DUKE ATREIDES (16) two-year-old colt on debut. Has trialled okay heading into this. Should get all the favours from this good gate. Must be respected. WATSON (19) drifted back on debut last start over 1100m at Randwick Kensington and could only manage fourth. Has the race experience onboard now and gets his chance. SUGGESTED PLAY: Box Quinella 1,17,8,16,19.
