Esprit Richard to take charge ahead of Keiai Elnath at a solid tempo. GUREN (12) turned in a fine effort to score by 2.5 lengths at this course and distance when first-up from a spell last start. Finds another suitable race and can do it again. GLOIRE SKY (5) was safely held when fifth last start over 1600m at this track, beaten 6 lengths. That followed a good first-up win at this track. Finds an easier assignment and can get the job done. MEINER AEGIS (6) wasn't far away last time at big odds, finishing second over 1650m at this track. One of the main contenders. KEIAI ELNATH (2) returns after a spell of six months. Started the last campaign in good style when in the placings over 1600m at this track. Looks a strong top-three prospect.
