PADDYS DIAMOND (1) made a nice return at his latest appearance three weeks ago, finishing 8 metres away in third over 1780m at this track. Has the benefit of a good draw. That latest effort is good enough to take out a race like this. EXCUSE TO CULLECT (5) has been racing well, filling a top-five position at his last four starts including a third most recently at this track over 1780m. Won't find this any harder and he can add to the impressive recent record. NEED NOT TO WARRY (6) is right in contention after finishing in the placings for the second time in a row last start, beaten 2.5 metres into second at this track. No reason he cannot take this out. BLING THE NOISE (3) cannot be left out after solid recent performances, the latest a sound third at this track over 1780m.
