ESPRIT GARCON (3) moved into the race boldly before peaking on the run first-up over this course and distance. The tongue tie goes on now and the draw isn't an issue as he tends to get back anyway. Form out of that race has worked out well and he can get back to winning ways today. MALKAR PINDARI (4) rocketed home over 1000m first-up when a long last on straightening. Chris Parnham hops in the saddle now and she draws inside now. May need some luck to get out, though she's a classy type and she looks open to further improvement. REGAL STATUE (13) won well first-up and can improve again now second-up. MISS FLIRTACIOUS (14) will put herself on the speed and take plenty of catching down in the weights.
