ELUSIVE EXPRESS is still a maiden but was staying on so strongly behind Elwazeer over 7f here a fortnight ago that a 2lb rise shouldn't prevent her first success. She had Daisy Mountain and Kalacan behind in that event and both look held. Cool Athlete had also finished behind Elwazeer in an earlier contest over the C&D but he got no sort of run that day and those who supported him into favouritism will be looking for compensation. Atlas Peak has won here from the same mark but has an absence to overcome.
