WHITE MAGIC (10) returns from a break of 11 weeks. Genuine performer last prep whose most recent appearance resulted in a win over 1200m at this track. Expected to bring the good form from last campaign to this contest. SOUND KINGDOM (5) finished last campaign with a couple of minor placings, the latest over 1200m at this track four-and-a-half months ago. Has a high cruising speed. Will give a great sight. DAIYAME (4) made significant late ground last start to get up for second over 1200m at this track. Fair record at this trip with a win and seven placings. One of the main contenders. ARDE FOX (1) failed to figure again last time over 1200m at this track, beaten 5.5 lengths into eighth. Should be poised just off the lead. Must be respected.
