Good tempo anticipated with Baganov and Il Cielo leading the way. TIME BANDIT (7) finished eighth two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 1425m at this track, beaten 2.25 lengths at the first start for the new stable. That was in BM70 grade, though, so he will find this much more to his liking with blinkers on. IL CIELO (3) is a consistent type who comes here off a last-start fourth, beaten 1.75 lengths, over 1512m at this track. Ran top-three at his previous five starts and only needs to hold recent form to again be a force. TREBILCO (8) was a dominant maiden winner last start and while he will find things tougher here, he should have taken some fitness benefit from that given he was only third-up. DOCINTHE (5) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start when he was always well out of his ground over 1350m at Donald, but will find this more to his liking and can improve. BAGANOV (4) wasn't disgraced behind a smart one last start, just needs luck from the sticky gate. SUGGESTED PLAY: Time Bandit each way.
