Pace only fair with Happy Fat Cat rolling to the lead ahead of Romantic Son and Victory Sky. KING OF FIGHTERS (7) just missed over this track and trip last time out when the $1.80 favourite, beaten 0.3L under Avdulla. This looks to shape similarly to last time out and his form has been solid since that effort. On the cusp of his maiden victory and this looks right up his alley. BEAUTY INFINITY (3) got the job done last start as the $3.20 favourite and was on the 7-day turnaround there. He's progressing nicely this season and Kingscote should get every chance from the barrier. Nicely placed and can play a major role once again. VIEW OF THE WORLD (2) disappointed at his latest start but he was trending the right way prior to that. Purton has won 3/5 when riding the gelding and he looks a very progressive type. On the way up and he can bounce back to form. HAPPY FAT CAT (5) was too good from the front last time out and can be in the finish once again.
