CONRAD PATCH (2) sat handy on debut but couldn't land the knockout blow, finishing 1.8L off the winner at this track and trip. He'll be better for that effort however and is expected to have come on from the debut performance. Has stacks of upside and can get the job done this time. VOYAGE BOSS (1) comes back to this track and trip where he has won previously. His recent trial at Conghua was sound and his last start at Happy Valley rates highly. Needs some luck from out wide but has the class to knock this over. MALPENSA (4) got a long way back last start but hit the line nicely. His recent trial was solid and he sat close to the speed in that hit out. Looks to be improving every time he steps out and he can take the next step now. PERIDOT (10) wasn't far away last start and has to be included on the back of that effort.
