I’M A MAN attracted money in his first appearance in new surroundings. He sported blinkers, which may not have helped and pulled up not striding out. He could have come on.
SILVER TUDOR, who was third on debut over 1,200m, enjoyed the step up to this distance last time and finished fourth. He should not be far behind. GOING GLOBAL showed marked improvement last time and could get into the money.Six of the 10 runners are debutantes. Watch the betting, especially on NAKA ISLAND and MOVING IN.
However, they will have to beat MISS SHAIVI, who enjoyed the longer trip and jumps from pole position, and MARY’S GREENLIGHT, who eased in the betting on debut but was not disgraced. Mary’s Greenlight will relish the extra distance. ZINOVI and LINKIN NAVIGATOR should get close on collateral form on the American Graffiti form line and the extra 200m would not bother them.
There are two first-timers who could upset them – DREAMLAND and WE ARE THE LOGANS. Watch the money. PLATINA PRINCESS drifted in the betting on debut. She showed inexperience but ran on smartly to finish second over 1,200m. She will come on heaps and the longer race will suit. The one to beat. EFFICIENT TRADER found problems last time. Deserves another chance. TULIP TREE is bang in form and loves this track, where she has won four from five starts, including one over this distance.
However, she gives chunks of weight to UNCONDITIONAL LOVE, QUEEN OF SMOKE and GREEK MISS and should be tested. BLACK SILVER and ESCAPE ARTIST could earn some minor money. LET’S CRUISE was beaten narrowly last time but could make amends from pole position. MEMORIAL DAY will have the run of the race, but ISLAND BEAUTY should not be far behind.
