FAST ONE (11) went forward last start and gave a great sight when second over 1200m at this track. Has the pace to overcome the draw. Norifumi Mikamoto has scored on her five times and is back in the saddle. Will strip fitter so expect her to feature. THOR HAMMER (3) had been in top form landing two consecutive wins but last start missed the frame when seventh over 1200m at this track. Has a fine record here with three wins from nine starts. Among the leading chances. A SHIN SCOTTY (12) resumed over 1200m at this track last start and after showing little early speed closed hard to score by a neck. Goes well at this journey with four wins and three placings from 10 starts and is one of the contenders. BISMARCK (8) finished 13th two runs back then did well last start but found a couple better over 1000m at this track, beaten only 1.75 lengths. Likely improver so plenty to like about his chances.
