Reasonable tempo with Zimbara probably leading but a few others should keep her honest. KINGSLAND (2) is an honest commodity who is yet to miss the top-four in five career starts to date and this is not an overly strong affair. Gets plenty of weight relief with the 3kg claim and drawn to get a cosy run in transit from gate two. Rates the testing material. ZIMBARA (7) is a second-up winner in the past and gets the services of Huxtable in the stirrups. Deserves serious consideration. BOLD AS BRASS (3) will be rock-hard fit for this and rates a genuine top-three contender on best form. PORRISTA (5) strips fitter second-up from the spell and gets 2kg off. In the mix. ALL BLACK (1) best of the rest in a race decimated by key scratchings. SUGGESTED PLAY: Kingsland to salute.
