EL EXPLOSIVO (8) has been in the placings four times from eight outings. Last start finished seventh over 6¾f at this track. Has a sound record here with four top-three finishes from six starts. Nicely placed and expected to go very well. MAHENO (2) finished 0.8 lengths from the winner in fourth last start over 6¾f at this track, an improvement on his ninth at Strathalbyn the run before. Has his share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. I'M A MILLENNIAL (1) missed the placings two starts back then ran a better race when he made late ground and finished 0.9 lengths away in fifth last time out over 6¾f at this track. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways. SACRED CHORD (3) finished third last time over 6f at this track, beaten 6 lengths. Will trim down following recent racing. Nicely placed to fill a top-three spot again.
