Sports Minister has finished in the money the last twice and beaten Victory Stripe, Okie Note, He’s Note Worthy and Ranger Bob in the process. He’s open to further improvement over today’s trip but OKLAHOMA LINE gets another chance. The latter returned a losing favourite when third here recently but was given plenty to do and can come out best on this occasion if closer to the pace turning for home. Native River has blistering early pace and can figure if allowed an easy time on the lead.
