OCEAN VIKING (2) will strip fitter for this after running below expectations first-up at Jebel Ali, finishing fifth as a short-priced favourite over 1950m nearly a fortnight ago. He meets a stronger field, but he is worth another chance, especially with James Doyle picking up the ride. OLYMPIC CANDLE (9) missed the frame when resuming last start over 1800m at this track but wasn't all that far from the winner. He has a solid second-up record. Likely to push forward and race on the pace. Each way value. VINO SAURO (10) ran below expectations last time out on the dirt here, finishing well back when starting at $4.40. He is racing out of his class here, but has a private reputation, and is worth another chance, despite copping a wide gate. CARRON (12) will strip fitter for this after running below expectations first-up at Kempton Park All Weather, finishing seventh over 1609m. He is very capable on his day, and he can make a winning local debut. Watch the market moves closely.
