|---|---|---|---|---|

Moderate pace with Chocolate Royal rolling to the lead and setting the tempo. DESERT ANTHEM (6) should take beating here. Three runs this time in have all been good, running on strongly from too far back at Caulfield Heath last start to grab second over 1800m. Drawn wide sees him back again but 2000m on the bigger track here looks ideal. LE TROISIR (7) is a lightly raced 4yo who comes down from NSW, okay in a slowly run, bunched finish at Canterbury second up. He should relish this trip now and can improve. MR BANNOCK (9) was beaten at $1.85 over this route last time, just fair there having looked close to breaking through prior. Give him another chance. HOUDINI (2) broke through for a tidy win last time here and can go right on with it from the soft gate. SO SUAVE (11) will be hitting the line strongly. SUGGESTED PLAY: Desert Anthem on top.
