Only a small field with Eskimo likely to find a comfortable lead. With all the scratchings MAXXI BON (5) gets chance to find some winning form. Has been going well recently, the latest placing in a similar race to this. Best figures stack up and loves the softer tracks. Looks a top player. ALBANIAN I AM (8) ran a big race at odds in richer company last time when tried to lead throughout and placed at Geelong. Course and distance placed and off the low draw can give a sight again. ESKIMO (1) steps up to provincial company after a last-start win by a nose over 1550m at Manangatang. Has been going very well though with two wins from last three. Senior rider goes on and wit good early pace will be in this for a long way. VERIFIER (6) is fitter for one run back from a break and looks a big improver. SUGGESTED PLAY: Follow up on Maxxi Bon.
