Galileo Star can take up the running at a strong tempo. Genuine tempo with Galileo Star likely to find himself in front. Hard to knock the form of BUFFALO BILL (4) with a win and three minors from four starts. Drops in weight and back a furlong. Will be winding up strongly. WORDSWORTH (6) is also going well. Has been runner-up last two starts, the latest on the all weather here over 1200m. Expected to go close. GALILEO STAR (1) resumes from a long break. Maiden winner here before a spell and returns with leading rider back aboard. Has upside and should run well. HALCYON (3) resumes from a spell of 11 weeks and is having his first outing under new trainer Alan Greeff. Has placed fresh and leading rider engaged today. Keep very safe.
