Moderate tempo headed by Ensign Pulver. HARBIN (1) is third-up off two heavily-bet placings at Belmont. There was only a lip in it last time and the former Victorian has the blinkers back on and draws to advantage. Fitter again and should have them covered. SUCCESS PLAY (3) didn't miss a beat first-up winning easily this grade at Northam but was disappointing at Belmont following. Not sure what to make of that but he draws well and has plenty up the sleeve. The in-form Chris Parnham stays aboard and that's a positive. ULTIMATE STYLE (4) is also third up and has laid a solid foundation at Belmont. Is proven third-up and he has more to give also. Harbin's stablemate CRUISE TO VICTORY (8) finds harder but he was good here third-up as favourite following a barn switch. Has weight relief and CJP goes on. His best form would have him right in it. SUGGESTED PLAY: With Harbin.
