KODEBREAKER has never won on an artificial surface but has run well here the last twice, finishing in front of Tea Garden and Six Strings when third over a mile last month. He's 1lb higher here but looks up to beating these moderate rivals. Minhaaj makes a quick reappearance having failed to figure over 6f at Newcastle a couple of days ago. Danah Star also returns to today’s trip after a better effort in a classified race here though that was over a shorter trip.
