BLACK BEAT (11) is on the quick back up after sitting on the pace and boxing on well to finish third at this track six days ago. Has a wide gate to overcome but shapes as a major threat. KITANO ARTEMIS (8) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 6 lengths when fourth over 1300m at this track two weeks ago after being prominent at the bend. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time. ON THE BASARA (10) ran above expectations and got up for third at long odds at his latest appearance at this track over 1300m. Good signs last time and worth consideration. G T BONHEUR (2) could only manage to finish fourth after being in the firing line on the corner at her latest appearance over 1300m at this track. Appeals as a top-four contender.
