KNIGHTS REALM (6) finds it hard to win with two victories from 20 starts. Again tasted defeat last start when fourth over 1600m at Te Rapa, beaten 5 lengths. Best figures measure up nicely. Makes plenty of appeal. BRADMAN (2) is close to breaking through, last start finishing just half a length away in second over 1340m at Wanganui. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. CHANTILLY LACE (7) was ridden quietly then made a little ground and finished 5 lengths away in fifth last time out over 1400m at Tauranga a week ago. Steps up in distance today. Blinkers are removed. Among the leading chances. CHASE (3) settled well back before making steady ground in the straight last start to finish fifth, beaten 6 lengths, over this journey at Listed level at Wanganui. Solid top-three hope.
