BRIGHAM 2 ROYAL MIRACLE 7 ART NOUVEAU 8 BLUE QUARTZ
1
BRIGHAM will appreciate this trip having gone close over 1,600 metres last
time. 2 ROYAL MIRACLE has run a good race over 1,600 metres before
and could be in the shake-up. 7 ART NOUVEAU has some fair form and should
be involved if able to overcome a wide draw. 8 BLUE QUARTZ also has a wide
draw but has some good form and should be thereabouts. (David Thiselton 1-2-7-8)

CONSTELLATION 8 ANCHORAGE 2 NYAKA NYAKA 1 SYLVAN WARRIOR

CONSTELLATION has finished close up in two fair races over this trip and has a
chance, 8 ANCHORAGE made a good debut and represents an inform yard. 2
NYAKA NYAKA beat Constellation by 0.8 lengths last time but is now 3kg worse
off. 1 SYLVAN WARRIOR has won his last two starts, seems to be on the up,
and Gavin Lerena sticks with him. (David Thiselton 3-8-2-1)

JAPANESE GARDEN 4 EMPRESS WU 2 SAUDI SWEEP 1 DESERT CLOUD

JAPANESE GARDEN has run two fair races and has a chance here of going one
better than last time with Gavin Lerena up. 4 EMPRESS WU is knocking on
the door and should be right there. 2 SAUDI SWEEP has the form to be
involved in this race, but the high draw might be a disadvantage with the
outside rail in by 12m. 1 DESERT CLOUD has the form to be involved but also has
a high draw. (David Thiselton 18-4-2-1)

THE ULTIMATE KING 2 ALADDIN’S LAMP 9 COPPOLA 11 SPY STORY
1
THE ULTIMATE KING looks to be a promising type and can go close if able to
overcome a wide draw. 2 ALADDIN’S LAMP is knocking on the door and
the step up and trip should suit although he also has a wide draw. 9
COPPOLA shouldn’t be far off Ultimate King with the wide turnaround and he is
drawn in pole. 11 SPY STORY has been in good form and tries a step up in
trip from a good draw. (David Thiselton 1-2-9-11)

INSTANT ATTRACTION is in fine form at present and runs over an ideal trip but
does have a wide draw. 4 CARNELO can go close over a suitable trip from a
good draw. 5 CALL ME MASTER is never far off them and tries a step up and
trip. 6 GAMER disappointed last time but is capable of better. (David Thiselton

CAPE LIGHTS disappointed last time but will enjoy the step up and trip and has
a good draw. 6 BLIND AMBITION is in good form and over a suitable trip
should be in the shake up. 14 I AM REGAL is a consistent sort and from a
good draw with a 4kg claimer up could earn. (David Thiselton 3-6-14-1)

NEW MEXICO has plenty of ability and over a suitable trip should be right
there. 10 MYSTIC VISION is drawn on the right side over a suitable trip
and has a fine chance. 15 CLARKSON has a good draw for a change and over
this suitable trip should be in the shake up. 18 SEA SHANTY is just four
points for his last win and could finish strongly again. (David Thiselton 8-10-15-18)

come down to a competitive merit rating. 14 GOLDEN ASPEN is showing signs of a
form return. 17 WRITTEN IN STONE is a gallant soldier who always gives of his
best. (David Thiselton 4-6-14-17)
