CLONBRIEN KING (2) has been settling off the speed lately, finishing fourth (30.68) last time in a HCP at this track. Looks the one to beat on his best form. BULL RUN BIRD (3) got off the mark last time, scoring by a nose at this track over 500m (30.12). This tougher but expected to be in the finish. PLATINUM RECORD (5) jumped from this trap last time and also the same course and distance when a half a length second (30.51) in an A3. Expecting another bold showing. LAVENDER BLUE (6) has ability and can feature with the right run after missing a cheque here most recently.
