Dire has been placed in all three starts to date and gets his chance to break through here.
All oh his runs have been over the 320m trip where he’s been finishing off strongly, so the rise in distance looks ideal and I think he’ll prove too good for them.
Paw Vera returned from a freshen up in top order as she sped away to record a seven length victory in slick time here last start.
Only lightly raced, the daughter of Fernando Bale has shown good natural talent and her most recent performance suggests she’s got a bright future ahead.
She’ll jump from box two again and if she repeat that latest effort, they won’t catch her.
Swan’s Spirit is racing well, having found the frame at his past five outings.
He was too good for them over this trip two runs back and last time, out to 401m, it was a solid effort to finish a close second as he tried hard but just couldn’t reel in the leader.
He’s unbeaten in three goes over this distance here and he looks well placed to add to that ally.
My Three Boys is in red hot form and will look to make it five straight wins.
He resumed off a three months break in early December and has proven far too good in four runs since his return
He’s four from five over the 401m here and with box two this evening, I think he’ll be too slick for them again.
