ALBANIAN I AM (12) returned from a break last start with a mediocre sixth over 7f58yards at Kyneton after giving away a big start. This looks a sterner test than last time but on his best form he is one of the key runners. BOARDRIDER (13) finished out of the money when fresh from a lay-off two starts back then he was never in contention and was beaten 5 lengths when fifth in a 1m contest at Cranbourne two-and-a-half weeks ago. It doesn't get any easier but on his best form he is good enough to take this out. STAUNCH (8) returned from a break of five months with a solid third last start at Cranbourne over 1m. The extra journey should play into his hands. Among the winning hopes. CALLMEANICON (16) settled well back last time out then found the line strongly to finish 3 lengths away in fourth over 1m at Sandown-Lakeside. Among the chances.
