PACKING PHOENIX (1) is a progressive gelding who was not far from the winner in third at the end of 1200m at this track nearly a fortnight ago. Has his share of ability, and will again be hard to beat in this suitable race. CLOUD NINE (6) is a first-starter by Tiger Heart out of Lukinha. Placed in a recent trial. A betting push will add to the confidence. EMBRACE ABERDEEN (2) raced on the speed from the outset and dug deep to score by a nose on debut last start over 1200m at this track. He stays in the same class and has the scope to go on with the job. MOUNT EVEREST (4) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1400m at this track. He has a far superior draw this time, and is not to be underestimated. Include in all top 4 combos.
