Strong tempo from Gagne, Link Starts and A Shin Ipin. TERUKEN LEINSTER (5) recorded a strong maiden win over 1700m at this track last time, getting there by 4 lengths. Shaping up nicely and he looks certain to measure up again. ASTERIUS (1) gave away a start then stormed home to win over 1500m at this track last time out. Expected to be there at the business end. LINK STARTS (10) turned in a good performance last time over 1500m at this track, finishing 2.25 lengths from the winner in third. Won't be bothered by this longer journey. One of the better hopes. A SHIN IPIN (4) was beaten 37 lengths into eighth in a 2100m contest at this track two weeks ago. Better than recent efforts suggest.
