BORA BORA dropped back to a mile last month and produced his best run to date, staying on late. He makes his handicap debut and is one of the few with scope so looks the one to beat. Cannoli also ran his best race on the surface so far over the trip on Friday under today's rider while Anjah wasn't beaten far over the trip a couple of weeks ago and Shane Foley takes over from an apprentice. Tony Martin's horses are in form so Draco Pulchrac is one to note from the bottom of this moderate handicap.
