BABY DONT HURT ME found support in both her starts and it could be 3rd time lucky. CARUSO is running close-up and could have her consistency rewarded but should be held by LOVE BITE if the blinkers make any improvement. TIME SILHOUETTE (improved in blinkers), RIO SUPREMO, LETHA and a supported first-timer could get into the money.

All 6 runners could get into the picture. IVALO'S PRINCE is holding form and could have the run of the race. MOTOWN MAGIC has most scope for improvement and if behaves at the start should be right there. KUUMA disappointed in both starts after a rest and could find it. SEA WAYS is capable but always gives start. ELUSIVE CURRENT makes her debut in new surroundings and could feature. SPICE MARKET claims 4kg and should be at peak fitness.

QUICK RUN is overdue her victory and could get her just reward. LEMME GO found no support on debut but finished off strongly - he is sure to improve. BLACKBURN JET wasn't disgraced on debut but has an inside draw which could prove a problem. Watch the newcomers, especially MATHIS.

Despite the size of the field it should get interesting. SEA VIRESCENT is best this course and distance and his form was franked. He gets the nod. GRAPPLER is no slouch and should make his intentions known. SUPER AGRA is holding form and shouldn't be far off. THEORY OF FLIGHT will be catching late. GALLIC CHIEF is back on turf in new surroundings and must be included.

BLACK THORN has won both starts over this distance and should extend the statistics. However, he will have his work cut out to beat RAISEAHALLELUJAH who will enjoy this track, especially over this distance. THE KOP gives weight all round but shouldn't be far behind while WHITE FANG could go all the way sporting blinkers. The remaining 3 runners could pop up.

The form of the recent Summer Cup appears all wrong. WAR OF ATHENA never produced her ability in the sticky going and finished behind JOHNNY HERO with TIERRA DEL FUEGO a further 2 lengths adrift. Biggest danger should be MALMOOS who never got into the race but hopefully blinkers could get his mind right. EXPRESSFROMTHEUS, RUNNING BRAVE, SAVANNAH STORM and ROUGE ALLURE are looking for minor money.

BUREAU DES LEGENDE is on a roll and looking for 4 successive wins. IRON WILL ran flat in his 2nd run as a gelding and comes off a short rest. Expect a better run. LITIGATION is maturing now and could get into the mix. Stablemate FISHER KING could get into the Quartet. LOOK YOURSELF has not been out the money and could keep his record intact. ABOUT TO STORM could take home a cheque.

Weight could be the decider. FUNKY MUSIC is running well but has to give RIVER JORDAN 4kg which could be costly. The latter, however, gives start and may not make it up. RICCARDO is running close up and shouldn't be far off again. INDUS KNIGHT and ADMIRAL DOOLEY come off a maiden wins and could improve. SEQUOIA and AFTER HOURS are looking for Quartet money.

Difficult race to end. RAMCHANDANI ROAD races before this and if he takes his place could beat a field of this nature - watch the form. WEST COAST LOVER could be preferred over stable companion BLUE EYES who holds a few on recent form. THE MAKWAKKERS cannot be ignored for money. Top weight INTO THE FUTURE and bottom weight BRIDGE OF SPIES are 2 more of many looking to get into the picture.
