XILLOW (5) has been in great form with two placings in succession, most recently when beaten 6 lengths into second over 1000m at this track. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways. POETA (11) ran well on debut last start to finish third over 1000m at this track in a tougher race. Has a wide gate to overcome but he should be in the finish. RIDLEY CRY (2) closed last campaign with back-to-back placings, the last of which was at this track three-and-a-half months ago. Likely to push forward and race on the pace. Expected to be in the finish. OHAIO (3) is facing the starter for the first time. By Can The Man and comes from the Fabricio Tieppo Borges stable. Good draw a big help. Worth watching for a betting push.
