MILLENNIUM BLADE (3) looks close to a win after finishing in the money at both runs, the latest when second at Caulfield over 6f. Should enjoy a good run just off the speed. Expected to be in the finish. OBSERVER (2) was less than a length from the winner in second at Pakenham on debut before showing the benefit of that race experience when an impressive winner over 7f at Sandown-Lakeside last start. Capable of further improvement and can go on with the job. BELLA PIETRA (10) accounted for a maiden field over 7f at Pakenham last start, finishing 3 lengths ahead of the nearest rival. Is lightly raced and has plenty of scope for improvement. Harder task ahead this time but can measure up. IMPENDING WAR (1) scored last start at Swan Hill to make it two wins from two starts this campaign. Should camp just off the leaders. Can feature in the finish.
