King Furioso and Blade Runner are both expected to press forward and take it up. URBAN HERO (5) is in great form, lifting strongly to score last start over 1200m at this track to make it two in succession. Leading contender. KING FURIOSO (11) has progressed nicely in his last couple of runs. Finished third two starts back then scored by 3 lengths as public elect last time out over 1200m at this track. Good enough to play a major role. VILLAGE STEEL (8) improved last time out to score as public elect over 1200m at this track. Capable of testing her rivals. LIVE KITTY (1) was unwanted in betting last time but scored by 2 lengths over 1200m at this track. Hard to fault winning form and worth consideration here.
