Expecting Altruist to take up the running with Eau De Cologne and Eskimo close at hand. ALTRUIST (3) on top in another open affair. He's racing in fine form, following up a win three back with two minor placings, good to the line on a heavy track here over 1500m last time out. Only needs to hold that form to be fighting out the finish again. BELLONADO (10) should be ready to peak third up, not far away in either run this time in. A wet track should pose no issue for him and he now draws much better. JUSTABOOM (13) is a consistent sort who hasn't been far away of late. The run two back at Sandown Lakeside reads well and she must be respected for the top yard. TOURNELLE (11) is a lightly raced former import who should be much better suited stepping up in trip now. Can improve quickly. BELLE INFERNO (12) comes back to turf here which can suit and the win two back reads well. SUGGESTED PLAY: Altruist each-way.
