BIG PHU KAO (6) was sent out favourite last time and scored by a head over today's trip at this track. Has a good record at this course and distance, including 11 wins and five placings. In form and should go well again. BAKSHEESH (7) has filled a minor placing at both runs this time in work, most recently when second over 1200m at this track. Does have a strong third-up record. Good chance to break through. GOLD BRAIN (10) returns from a layoff of three months. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last prep over 1200m at this track. One to consider. KIWAMI IMON (9) was unplaced two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1200m at this track, beaten 7 lengths into sixth. Capable of featuring prominently.
