LOIERO (8) finished fourth last start, beaten 3.5 metres at Boort over 2250m. Can travel in a nice spot from this draw and wait on the sprint lane if necessary. Meets a comparable field so he can play a big role in the outcome. SON OF A BROAD (1) had been racing well and again performed impressively last time out, making up plenty of ground with a sustained run but finding a couple better over 1690m at this track. Likely to get all the favours from this nice draw. Tackles a similar assignment and he can grab that well-deserved win. ELLIANA (2) ended last prep with a fifth at this track over 1690m 11 months ago. Capable of a forward showing while fresh. BONIFICENT (3) is at the track for the first time. By Vincent and hails from the David Harris stable. Likely to get all the favours from this nice draw. Likely to attract plenty of interest from punters.
