UNLEASH THE BEAST (7) is yet to break through after three career starts. Could only manage to finish seventh last time out over 1600m at Riccarton Park following a minor placing at Kumara over 1810m the run prior. Big chance to break through. PATCH (3) is yet to break through in 11 runs. Finished 12th at his last appearance over 1600m at Riccarton Park on March 5. This looks a nice race so expect him to be right in the finish. YUNGBLUD (6) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1600m at Riccarton Park, beaten 4.5 lengths into sixth. Ideally placed and is sure to play a major role. PIRATES 'N' GOLD (2) missed the placings two runs back then didn't do any better last start when 15 lengths away in tenth over 2000m at Riccarton Park. No surprise to see him in the mix.
