RURU RUNRUN (4) ran well below her best last time over 1400m at this track, beaten 4.5 lengths into fifth at $2.60. Commendable record at this trip with a win and two minor placings and is a leading contender. BAKSHEESH (14) is closing in on a win, last time out finishing third over 1200m at this track when just 0.8 lengths from the winner. Tricky draw but should feature in the finish. SIEGER OCEAN (7) is back from a nine months spell and he does run well first-up, including a win over 1200m at this track at the start of last prep. Winning chance while fresh. ANELA KAIKAMAHINE (6) went to the lead from the low draw last time out and was still there on straightening, eventually finishing third over 1200m at this track. Worth including.
