Several of these are jumpers who looks as though they have been entered in the wrong race including I Hear A Symphony, who has been chasing for most of the past year but ran well over hurdles last month. Winning bumper Parramatta has run well on the Flat at Bellwestown and Gowran though on both occasions over much longer trips while Ordinary Man last won a race over 2m6f over fences at Tramore. EDENSHAW has had 14 races without winning but he's been placed on numerous occasions at around this trip and this looks a good opportunity for him to lose his maiden tag though he's never raced on an artificial surface. He just about holds Bon Accord on collateral form though the latter does at least have a good run on Polytrack to his credit.
