Plenty of course winners here including Gobi Star, who gained his second success on the track convincingly a week ago. He has been hit with a 12lb rise while Exquisite Acclaim is up 7lb for a head victory here last month which proved too much for him on a return visit. SUPER OVER won twice here around this time last year and is 2lb lower than his last victory. He has run very well in his two recent starts here and gets the nod though Little Keilee looks a threat. She looked like winning here a fortnight ago when travelling easily in the straight but was run out of it close home by Mullacash Buzz, who was receiving 10lb. She can reverse earlier running with Not Just Yet.
