Best served by the framing of this seller RIO CARIBE is the selection ahead of last time out winner Timeteam while Anjomarba always needs respecting in this grade. Easily the best in at the weights the pick ran a close second behind Dream Win in a handicap off a similar mark three starts ago. He couldn't match that from higher weights in two subsequent starts but dropped into this grade he has every chance. Timeteam has won two of his last four starts both in this grade including last time out. His yard do well in these types of contests and he was a comfortable winner on that last start. Anjomarba has a good strike rate in this class of race so while she has a bit to do at the ratings she should be respected while Tres Amigos isn't weighted out of a challenge should he return to form. There are a few in with chances but Rio Caribe is best in and should score.
