5R : NEPTUNE (1) is a promising galloper who won at her last run before a break three-and-a-half months ago over 1400m at Bangalore. Has never been out of the placings first up from two tries. Winning rider A Sandesh stays aboard. Should be in the finish. LA DOLCE VITA (12) hasn't made an impression since resuming despite market confidence. Last start could only manage seventh over 1600m at this track. Rates highly on best figures. RED DUST (4) was sent out at $16 last time but ran above expectations and won over 1200m at this track.
