HEMI TWO BARRELL has the tactical pace to get forward, a result of racing keenly last time, and does give impression he will stick on first go at the extended 2400m as he handled the 400m rise in trip last start. GAELIC KIWI has placed in both starts here in the 2400m range. Peaked late, but still well in front of third. Draws low and has top rider again. SOBINE looked to relish the step up to 2000m third run from spell when settling closer and bred to run the trip. Improved fitness and experience in staying race are positives,as are blinkers first time. EYE TRACKER had to barge way out at top of straight last start when narrowly beaten over 2100m, rising up 500m in distance, and had solid margin on third. Natural improver with that distance run under belt.
