PATIRO (5) drew a wide gate last start and was safely held, beaten 14 metres into 11th at Mt Harding over 2300m. Meets a comparable field and he can bounce back to form. HOO HAA (3) drew wide last start and was never a genuine threat, beaten 6 metres into tenth at Addington over 2600m. Meeting a deeper field this time but she is drawn to advantage and is up to the challenge. ALMIGHTY CLEVER (6) didn't do a bad job when fourth over 1980m at Addington last time out. SPIRITUAL BLISS (8) is worth plenty of thought off a last-start win by half a metre at Addington over 1980m.
