BEL ROUTE (1) started at $1.80 last time and ran below expectations, finishing fifth and beaten 6 lengths at Urawa over 2000m. Has the class to put the recent run behind him. LOCOMOTION (3) has been in great form, winning two on end before back-to-back placings, the latest when beaten 3 lengths into second over 1400m at this track when he was handy all the way. Has his share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. SOUTH OF LONDON (10) went around over this course and distance last time and led from the outset to score by a nose. Form over this course and distance is solid with a win and two minor placings from four starts. One of the main contenders. AILES LA VICTOIRE (12) fought on for second last start over 1400m at this track, beaten 4 lengths to add to some fine recent form. Finds a suitable race and can build on solid recent efforts.
