FANTASMA DA OPERA (1) is a 20-start maiden who is knocking on the door, the last run a commendable second at this track over 1000m. Big chance to open her account. ENGLISH GAME (8) is back from a spell of three-and-a-half months. Closed last prep with a fourth over 1200m at this track. Should be in this for a long way. TALISAY (3) did little and finished seventh over 1300m at this track last start, a less impressive effort than his sixth on debut at this track the run before. Has the ability to put the recent run of form behind him. VALENTIN (5) is yet to break through in nine runs but has been thereabouts. Last start was fifth over 1000m at this track. Has a high cruising speed. Don't underestimate.
