With stable jockey Richie Mullen on board, Skycruiser is probably the best of Satish Seemar's trio and he's already run a couple of decent races here this winter. Parvaaz rarely runs beyond 6f these days and it was over that trip that he just hung on to beat SURGE AHEAD a fortnight ago. The runner-up stayed on strongly and is 4lb better off so should have little difficulty turning the tables and can gain his first all-weather victory. Maltese Cat, who was beaten just over three lengths into third, was having his first start since February and this lightly-raced individual should get closer. Tamarrud made a winning debut on the surface over a mile in November but though starting favourite on a return visit three weeks later he never got involved. Count Paris can never be discounted in this sort of class and is on a reasonable mark. He'll also be better for a recent run, though being drawn widest of all may be a problem.
