Comment: Yet to taste defeat at this track, winning on all three visits; better than this level in his pomp; three wins from three runs over C&D, including last time when beating six rivals (14-5); should go well.

Comment: Off the mark at the third time of asking when winning with a bit to spare 28 days ago in a maiden special weight upped to 6½f; may have to settle for supporting role as facing a tougher assignment this time.

Comment: Respectable fourth when behind the reopposing Ray Of Sunshine three weeks ago in an allowance race; generally struggled with a record of 1-18; probably unlikely to trouble the principals as this is a tougher test.

Comment: Missed out by half a length in a maiden special weight where just ahead of Our Memories last week; form of the yard is a plus; big chance.

10/3

Comment: Finished behind Cry Tough in a maiden special weight when failing to live up to market expectations last week; Kelvin Cruz here for one ride; should prove competitive as has bits and pieces of decent form and market vibes last time suggest she is capable of better.

One Year More

Jockey: Julio Jorge Trainer: Kristy Gazzier Age/Wt: 4/8-12

25/1

Comment: First public outing; workout history suggests fitness may not be an issue; yard's stats offers some hope; the betting can guide but a watching brief probably the best policy.

Town Topic

Comment: First time on the track; related to 4½f winner Two Room School; faces a demanding debut and this one is best watched.

Stella's Candy

Comment: First start in public for this daughter of Candygram; might be one for another day; market may guide as faces a tough assignment on this debut.

Jockey: Jhorma Cespedes Trainer: William Straughn Age/Wt: 3/7-11

Comment: First career outing for this three-year-old daughter of Monster Mash; trainer doesn't have the finest record with newcomers so overlooked unless the market says otherwise.

Appletini Miss

Jockey: Reshawn Latchman Trainer: Kristy Gazzier Age/Wt: 3/8-4

Comment: Has busy trackwork profile; related to Ciderhouse Way (winner from 4½f up to 6½f); must be considered.

Aim's Redirect

Jockey: Christian Maldonado Trainer: Stephen Reggetts Age/Wt: 4/8-12 F: 33323-

Comment: Best form so far in last two starts and normally pretty consistent; came up a bit short, beaten 3l when favourite, upped to 7f in September in a maiden special weight; returns from a break today; should give it a bold bid.
