KIEFFER (3) was out of the money when resuming from a lay-off last start over 6f at this track, beaten 8 lengths. Has been in the money at each second up start. Meeting a tougher field but with added fitness he is capable of testing his rivals. ESSKAY (4) is coming off a last-start fourth, beaten 6 lengths, over 1m at Darwin. Looks to have an edge on most of these. BECQUEREL (2) scored a barnstorming win last start over 1m at this track, coming from the tail to get up by 0.8 lengths. Is going well this campaign, recording a win and a minor placing from three starts. Shapes as one to consider. GRINZINGER BISHOP (1) missed the placings when resuming two runs back then didn't do any better last start when 6 lengths away in tenth over 6¾f at Kingscote. Well placed to make amends.
