INTEGROUS (11) was only a nose from the winner in second last time out in a small field over 1200m at this track at the first run of the campaign. Should park just off the speed despite the draw. Among the leading chances. ALAYS (12) ran below expectations last time at La Plata, finishing sixth when starting at $5.70. He is capable of running a bold race at some value each-way. MARINELLO (8) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1200m at La Plata, beaten 2.5 lengths into sixth. He won't have to improve by much to figure in the top 4 here. CARLO'S BEACH (6) has not won for a long while. Last raced on August 24 finishing fifth at this track over 1200m. Suitably placed so anticipating a bold performance. Include in all top 4 combos.
