Bay Hill is the only course winner in the line-up having won over slightly shorter last weekend. He's up 3lb but his rider's claim is a bonus and another big run is anticipated. Sharjah has been expertly placed by Andrew Slattery to win eleven races and was impressive at Dundalk earlier in the month though he's now 9lb higher back on Turf and may do better when heading back to Polytrack. The three-year-old SAN REMO was making his handicap debut at Dundalk and had to battle to get the better of Room To Roam but looked as though there was more to come and he may well prove better than an 88-rated handicapper. Nonetheless has disappointed since scoring at the Galway Festival in July and Three Jacks' Tipperary victory came on heavy going.
