GRACIE (1) is resuming from a spell of five months and having his first run for the Luiz De Gonzaga Esteves yard. Was in the placings when first-up from a spell last campaign at this track over 1400m. Hard to beat despite the layoff. VIENNA FREUD (3) was only a nose from the winner in second last time out in a small field over 1400m at this track. Should be prominent from the outset. Among the leading chances. VENICE QUEEN (6) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1400m at this track, beaten 9 lengths. Likely improver with strong prospects. SADIQ (2) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1400m at this track, beaten 18 lengths into fourth. Well placed and can figure in the finish this time.
