Race Tip

NEPELA (3) has been in the market at his last couple of starts but hasn't made an impression, last start finishing eighth over 5f196yards at Gundagai. Can improve sharply. CESAR BESSAN (5) doesn't win out of turn but ran a strong race last time out over 6f at Drouin, finishing third and beaten 2. 5 lengths. Has raced two times at this course and distance and is yet to be beaten. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run this time. LOU LOU'S CHOICE (9) is usually thereabouts but finds it hard to win, with just two wins from 20 starts. Again tasted defeat last start when fourth over 5¾f at Merton, beaten 7 lengths. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run. ANNOY'EN ONE (2) was well in commission last time but ran below expectations when fourth and beaten 3 lengths over 6f at Drouin. Reunites with jockey Sebastian Galea who knows him well, including three wins while aboard. Don't underestimate.
