SUBMERGER (11) gets the nod on the strength of a better last-start effort, finishing sixth over 1700m at this track and beaten just under five lengths after working home evenly. The return to 1200m is not a perfect profile on exposed figures, but this is not a deep set of winning claims and he has enough recent substance to take advantage. RIKO CUCKOO (13) is the obvious danger after being pipped at the post here last start, and her one prior placing at this distance supports the case that she can hold that form. OVERTURE (6) has been safely held at longer trips, yet the weight relief is a genuine positive and his fair work late two runs ago gives him some scope to improve back in distance. DAN STONE FORTE (10) was below market expectations as favourite last start, but she has placed three times from seven starts at this venue and her earlier third behind Quintet Hope reads well enough to keep her firmly in the winning mix.
