BELLASARIO (9) is usually thereabouts but finds it hard to win, with just two wins from 24 starts. Again tasted defeat last start when 11th over 6f at this track, beaten 3.5 lengths. Nicely placed to figure in the outcome. GEEGEES MISTY (10) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 5¾f at Devonport Synthetic, beaten 5.5 lengths into tenth. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time. RESTRICTED ACCESS (1) displayed plenty of early toe and went on to score by half a length last time out over 6f207yards at this track. Should be close to the speed despite the draw. In a suitable race and can find the winner's circle. RODRICK'S SECRET (7) was a long way back last start but hit the line well to finish sixth, beaten 3 lengths, over 5¾f at Devonport Synthetic. Has ability and a bold showing is expected.
