JACKAL'S SON (6) has the most reliable recent profile, coming off a third at this track when beaten just over three lengths after being unwanted in the market. His fourth to Gene Chen before that was also sound, and while his 1400m win record is modest, repeated placings at the trip keep him the runner to beat. BLUE TRAILER (3) looks the main danger after working home well for fourth behind Silver Niece and brings the strongest track-and-distance credentials, with three wins and seven placings from 21 tries. FUMI MARS (1) gets weight relief and has a genuine 1400m record, though she has been giving away starts and was beaten just over eight lengths last time. AQUA MEISTER (4) has to turn around two plain efforts, but his two placings from three runs at this track and distance give him enough minor-placing appeal if he finishes off better.
