A decent prize and a tricky puzzle to solve. The likes of Eastern Racer and Sweet Pursuit immediately take the eye with their excellent form figures on recent starts and victory for either would not come as a surprise. The Millman filly, a course and distance winner, makes fractionally more appeal of that pair but a chance is taken with MOBSTA. Mick Channon's inmate was well beaten last time but that came on quick going and the son of Bushranger is far better suited by some cut in the ground. He's also had just the one start since April so should be cherry-ripe now. Hyperfocus was back to form last time and will also like the ground. He is one to watch along with the reliable Miracle Of Medinah and consistent Alaadel.
