BERNARDO'S LEGACY (7) is a 18-start maiden who wasn't far away last time when second over 5½f at this track (Synthetic) on March 29. Leonel Reyes stays on and although yet to win has been in the money on two occasions. Should be in the finish. SOUTHERN CIVILITY (8) is a 14-start maiden who finished tenth at his most recent outing over 1m1/2f at this track (Synthetic) after he gave away a big start. This looks a nice race so expect him to be right in the finish. JAKE'S AFFECTION (3) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1m1/2f at this track, beaten 5.5 lengths into sixth after being prominent at the bend. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways. WALKING TESTIMONY (9) finished third last time over 5½f at this track (Synthetic) when resuming from a lay-off, beaten 6 lengths. Likely improver with strong prospects.
