LONESTAR WARRIOR (8) ran third last start at this track over 2230m, beaten 3.5 metres. Can travel in a nice spot from this draw and wait on the sprint lane if necessary. This should be an easier assignment so he is sure to prove tough to beat. THE REGINATOR (1) finished ninth here two runs ago before a comparable effort at his latest appearance over 1800m at this circuit, beaten 9 metres. Likely to get all the favours from this nice draw. This is a nice drop in grade so he is in the right race to return to form. JUST MOCHA (9) didn't do a bad job when fifth over 2230m at this course last time out. Top-three credentials. CLARENDEN SAKURA (6) is in the mix after turning in a better effort last start to finish second at this venue over 1800m. Only needs some luck from the sticky draw to be playing a role in the outcome.
