Miss Cunning is up 6lb for landing a 6f nursery here last week and has never raced over a trip this far. Johan The Great has shown potential in three maidens and a mark of 67 may not prove excessive but Enchanted One didn't look happy when stepped up to this trip a couple of weeks ago after a better run over 6f. Solar System hasn't shown much in three starts but has a smart pedigree and should start paying his way soon but a chance is taken with ADAMARIS. He was making his track debut and having his first start over the trip when producing a much better effort a fortnight ago and can make enough progress to get into the firing-line.
