HALE BOPP (6) is close to breaking through after three consecutive placings, the latest coming when third over 2000m at this track. Looks well placed this line-up so expect another big run. CAPITAN BRUJO (7) proved too strong last start and scored by over 1400m at this track. Has a good record at this course and distance, including a win and three placings. Should be prominent from the outset. Expecting a bold showing. BOUCLETTE CRAF (10) has switched yards since finishing fourth four weeks ago over 1400m at San Isidro. Well-placed and is among the chances. HAPPY FITZ (3) finished second last time over 1400m at this track when resuming from a spell, beaten 3 lengths. Will trim down second-up. Yet to miss the placings from four starts at this circuit. Nicely placed to fill a top-three spot again.
