SHAIYHAR (10) smart import who created a big impression at second Australian start when came with a well timed run from well back to score by a nose as favourite over 2000m here on June 3. Will relish the step up in trip and should progress quickly through his grades. Promising type. IMPULSAR (11) had mixed success over the hurdles at his last two starts and carries no weight back to the flat today. Can take up a forward position and prove hard to run down. D'AGUILAR (2) disappointed as fav at latest when a plugging third over 2520m at this track on June 3. Gets in light with the claim and can race in a stalking position. LE BAOL (8) frustrating stayer who drops many grades after finishing fourth in the LR Warrnambool Cup over 2350m six-and-a-half weeks ago. Has had two searching hurdle trials for this and another with no weight with the claim. Looks solid each way value.
