SAMMARU SHIP (8) was in a different class last time with a dominant all-the-way win by 2.5 lengths at this track over 1200m. Has an impressive strike rate at this distance with 12 wins from 16 runs and is on a six-run winning streak. Major player. FANYU (3) pushed forward and led throughout to score a one-length win over 1200m at this track last time. Drops significantly in the weights and is right in this. DREAD (10) has been in the placings at both runs this prep, most recently a closing second over 1200m at this track. Fitter and a solid top-three hope again. ALL FLAG (7) finished midfield when resuming from a break last start over 1200m at this track at big odds. Backmarker who gets home hard and usually races well second-up. In the mix.
