OTHERSIDE (8) turned in a solid run when resuming last start over this course and distance, finishing second and beaten only half a length. Has good early speed so should take up a forward position. Will be in this for a long way. ESCURIDAO (3) had been threatening before breaking through for a deserved win last time over 1000m at this track, scoring by half a length. Has a solid record here at the distance with two wins and three placings from seven tries. Will be hard to stop. OLAKALA (5) was easily accounted for when sixth last start over 1000m at this track, beaten 4 lengths after a good first-up win at this track. Best figures measure up, so deserves another chance. DEEP CHAMP (2) finished third last time over 1000m at this track when resuming from a spell, beaten 2.75 lengths. Has a solid record at this course and distance, including two wins. Hard to beat. UNISSIMO (7) has been in the market at her last couple of runs but failed to threaten. One more chance.
