BARAQIEL (6) is a progressive 5yo gelding who remained unbeaten from four starts at Caulfield over 1200m, laying out badly late but doing enough to hold them off. Can't see the straight track being an issue and he should be able to get into a nice rhythm out wide. JEDIBEEL (4) comes down from Sydney in very good form, beating another handy sprinter in Mogo Magic two back at Canterbury before giving 6kg to the winner and going under half a length. Must respect the stable bringing him down here. LEGIO TEN (9) got within a head of Baraqiel at Caulfield and should be hard to hold out. BAROQUE ROAD (5) won a handy midweek race last time and isn't the worst at each way odds. PIONEER RIVER (11) likes the straight and can run well.
