IL CIELO (1) found plenty to get the prize by 2. 25 lengths three runs back at Seymour before filling a minor placing at his last two starts. Gets the advantage of a good draw. One of the major players. TEL AVIV (3) is returning from a lay-off of 11 months. Finished fifth at Kembla Grange over 6½f at the first run last prep. Now with a new trainer Ben Brisbourne. Will be fit enough for this following a recent trial win. Worth serious consideration. KAWA (4) ran a better race last start to finish a close third over 7f at Horsham after being in the firing line on the bend. Likely improver with strong prospects. ELVIS (2) proved too strong two runs ago but was not as effective last time out when fifth over 7f86yards at Kyneton, beaten 4 lengths. Worth another chance.
