Lockheedlightning, King Pelles and Ice Rain to take up the running at a decent tempo. BATON ROUGE (9) set the pace here over this trip last time out and stuck on gamely to finish third. He won a good race over 2000m on this course, in his penultimate run. He drops in class and despite his big weight, he may be hard to peg back. PRIME VENTURE (8) ran on from last when winning his last start here over 1600m. He should be ideally suited to 1800m and can have the last say again. NAUSHON (10) finished sixth but not too far behind the second pick last time. He is 3 kilos better off at the weights today and can finish closer. OZARK (5) finished third behind the second pick last time out. He is 1 kilo better off at the weights today and should be thereabouts again. Each way.
