CIRCLING (2) settled in a rearwards position and never came on when resuming last start, finishing 11th and beaten 7 lengths over 6½f at Sandown-Hillside. This doesn't look as hard so he is a major player. BASSO CARUSO (5) was an impressive 3.5 lengths winner over 1m1/4f at Dederang last time. Getting up in the weights now. Catherine Masters retains the ride and there is no reason he cannot make it back-to-back victories. SHAHIN (9) finished third two runs back at Woolamai then improved last time out to score by a neck over 1m at Woolamai. Sophie Clayfield scored on him last time and retains the ride. Has his share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. GOVERNOR OF PUNJAB (10) finished 6 lengths adrift in seventh last time over 1m1f at Buchan in a disappointing performance. Open to improvement and should be about the mark.
