Took Gardner to take up the running at a moderate tempo. PAGANINI (2) bounced back to form last start but found one better over 1516m at Gawler, after leading them to the bend. Drops back in trip and gets a good chance to finally break through. MOUSSAKA (1) has had plenty of chances to break through and while he couldn't get the job done as favourite last time he should prove harder to stop now with added fitness. DARCI LANE (4) is a first starter by Darci Brahma for the Hickmott camp. Well educated with eight trials and keeps Todd Pannell. Should be competitive with the blinkers going straight on. ANDREFI (9) will be fitter for recent racing and draws well so can be an improver. SUGGESTED PLAY: Paganini to win.
