STARSHIP LIBERTY bolted up when dropped to a lesser level last month and can build on that now his confidence is buoyed. M Six lowers his sights and deserves plenty of respect, while Run Logan Run found just one too good and looks capable of going one better here.
WISEMAN JACK ran another creditable race to finish a close third at this track recently and looks the most solid option here. Royal Game is another consistent performer who is capable of getting on the premises, while Officer's Shadow was a head of a subsequent winner last time and looks an attractive alternative.
LUCKY AND COOL was sent off favourite when making his reappearance from 445 days on the sidelines, and despite only managing third on that occasion, he is entitled to improve for that outing here. Thrill Hill makes a big drop in grade, but will need to show more, while Franklyididitmyway looks deserving of a try at this level.
LEMME ROCK justified favouritism to land a third career success over track and trip recently and looks the one to side with his her current form. Manero and Untapped Secret make a big drop in grade and would be tough to stop if putting their best foot forward.
FIRE WISE regained the winning thread in good style here last month and can repeat the dose while evidently on good terms with herself. Also noted are Dogtooth Violet and Baby At The Park.
LITTLE DALE arrives on a hat-trick following two impressive course wins in similar claimers and he's difficult to oppose. Jet Set Cat and Shilah will be there to pounce if the selection falters.
DARK DESIRE was given too much to do when a running-on third over the extended 5f here last time out but the step up in trip should suit the four-time career winner. Kellster and Sugar Beach can also go well.
TALK THERAPY was last sighted finishing third in a 50,000 dollar stakes race so he could be tough to stop at this grade. Two And Twenty can provide the most resistance in his quest for a five-timer, but Summit County can't be ruled out after an impressive victory last time.
JOHNNY G pulled well clear of the remainder when runner-up last time and is tentatively preferred over Where's Elliot who drops from more valuable company. The sole newcomer Slider deserves a market check for a yard that has been in the money recently.
