BLUEPINOT (12) missed the placings when resuming two runs back then did a good job last start but found one better over 7f29yards at Sale, beaten only 0. 8 lengths after being in the firing line on the bend. Finds a tougher race but another big run is on the cards. BRUNG KING (1) resumed over 6½f at Bendigo last time out and finished second, beaten 1. 3 lengths. When resuming run. Ready to find best form. BRITISH POET (3) turned in a modest performance when seventh last time out over 7¼f at this track, beaten 3. 5 lengths after being in the firing line on the turn. That followed a win at Seymour at the previous outing. Taking on a better line-up this time but he is good enough to play a major role. FIRST CHORUS (8) was unwanted in betting last start but performed beyond expectations when beaten a head into third over 1m at Sandown-Hillside. Among the fringe chances.
