BAKEEL (2) is in a purple patch of form with his third straight win coming last time out over 1400m at Murray Bridge. Rates highly and hard to knock the winning form. SURPRISE COMING (6) fitter for the first up run over 1200m at Murray Bridge, finishing 2 lengths from the winner. Second up record is strong and rates among the leading chances. SEEKING STARDOM (5) disappointed at her last run ten weeks ago when sixth at Flemington, that effort following back-to-back wins. Did launch her last prep with a win over 1200m at Morphettville. One of the main contenders. SIR KINGSFORD (1) returns from a layoff of four months. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last time in work over 1400m at this track. Looks one of the genuine hopes in the race.
