VILLA SEVENTYNINE (2) was out of the money when resuming two runs back then again missed the frame last start when he got a long way back over 6½f at Cranbourne, beaten 3.5 lengths into seventh. Has his share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race. PRIDE OF GALWAY (3) ran below expectations last time at Pakenham, finishing fifth and beaten 3.5 lengths starting at 15/2. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run this time. SHOWBOAT (6) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start when he settled well back over 1m at Cranbourne, beaten 3.5 lengths into sixth. Finds a nice race and can feature in the finish. ROYAL FOX (1) was beaten 5.5 lengths into sixth in a 1m3/4f contest at this track two-and-a-half weeks ago. Finds a nice race and can atone.
